Dave is right. After about 6 wks on Losec my esophagatis turned into gastritis. How I knew- the coldness used to be any cold food going down, I felt every inch of the way. THEN I started feeling it drop KABUNG! into the stomach, same coldness there. Doctor said (with a wise smile as always) that's normal and not helped by my crazy eating pattern (see below-3 days of non-fat yogurt only). It cleared up when I increased Losec to 40, now I'm, trying to taper off, my stomach and heartburn are better (I had Japanese last night, soya, ginger,it was delicious), I think my irritated esophagus is really happy irritating me because it's back every AM until I go to sleep. Trish is right: it must be the hernia irritating it as soon as I get up, it gets progressively worse during the day). I literally feel it "relax" when I lie down, almost like tiny little contractions (remember childbirth, anyone? - except these are higer, below breastbone).
