Do you take it daily, Rebecca?

Hello everyone. Any experts out there? I had a question about omeprazole. Is it safe to take it daily passed the 2 weeks? I am almost 4 months post-op and I still find that my throat feels like I have lava stuck in my throat and I'm assuming that is a GERD symptom. I've never had any kind of reflux before, even when I was banded, until I did revision to sleeve. The generic omeprazole has helped me keep that at bay. I did call my surgeon and he told me to do go another 2 weeks then to give him a call. I don't have medical insurance and can't really afford one. So considering my circumstance, is it safe to take generic omeprazole? I don't get any side effects of any kind and it really helps keep that lava in the throat away. Thanks in advance! Looking forward to your reply(s).

Hello all, Just what the topic title says; is it okay to take Calcium softgels? I'm not really fond of calcium chews. And from some of the info I read here, looks like some folks take pills, so I take it softgels would be okay as well? Thanks in advance, your input is much appreciated! carma2013
