Hi All,
just sitting here feeling waves of stomach cramps, been building for a while now, it feels like I haven't taken my Omeprazole to protect my stomach, but I have.
Any suggestions? Or is this normal for long term use?

    Hi

    I would say that is not normal and you should seek advice.

    Make that appointment.

    All the best

    Hi Airwave,

    I agree with Elna (Hi :) ) and think if it is real stomach cramps you should seek some advice. I hope it's just a bug you have picked up,

    Take care, Cris

    Certainly not a bug, it started off with horizontal shooting pains over the last few months and is now more less constant feeling of soreness, oh well, back on the trudge to the doc's!
    Cheers

    Hello, I agree with the others, you MUST go back to the doctors. The proton pump medication does a very good job, but, sometimes your tummy gets used to one type. You may need a different one to do the job now, :? Anyway, I hope you get some help from your GP and soon start to feel better. :) Love Sue
