I had a laproscopic Roux-en-Y in 2009 and have dropped from 26 stones to 14 stones. I was put on Oemoprazole to protect my Stomach Lining. Last year my GP reviewed all my Meds and believed Oemoprazole was no longer needed. 3 days ago I was rushed into my nearest NHS Hospital with severe pain in abdomen and shoulders. This has flared my Fibromyalgia through the roof. I had emergency surgery and am now awaiting further tests. Whatever you do, Never Stop Taking Oemoprazole if you've been prescribed it. Back to sleep.....
