I have recently suffered bad reflux/oesophagitis and internal bleeding. The latest potential diagnosis is hiatus hernia although I am yet to have an endoscopy.
20 mg Omeprazole plus 300 Ranitidine and Gaviscon advanced in the evening seem to keep symptoms at bay most days but I have been suffering from extreme tiredness. I think it is both drugs that do this because for a while I was on just Ranitidine twice a day and I was still a zombie until I cut it down to once a day, but I still had the symptoms.
I feel I cannot continue like this and it looks as if I am on these or similar for life. Has anyone else had these symptoms and managed to switch to something similar and been OK?
I did not get anywhere when I tried to discuss with the GP - he just said there were not really any alternatives - but I know this is not the case.
Opinions welcome.
