cissyf 0 Posted March 30, 2014 I am 15 months out from surgery and have started having severe heartburn. I take Prilosec daily and other over the counter medicines for it with no relief. Any suggestions? It doesn't seem to make any difference what I eat or not eat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1Day1Life4Now 882 Posted March 30, 2014 I've had that problem for years. I have changed to Protonics, which was prescribed by my doctor. It seems to do the trick for me. Maybe you can get your doctor to prescribe it for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pharmd08 18 Posted March 30, 2014 I had horrible reflux and heartburn before surg, it seems to be a little better now, but I still have some. I also take protonix and it has made a HUGE difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cissyf 0 Posted March 30, 2014 Thanks, I'm going to call my doctor and see if I can try that medicine. It gets so uncomfortable I avoid eating! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
