Hi, reducing omoprazol needs to be done slowly if you have been on it for a while. "Acid bounce" can occur and pain is the result. A strategy that worked for me was to stop the omoprazol one day a week and see how you get on, if everything is OK wait another week then stop it two days a week, carry on like this till you are completely off it. Hope it helps.

It does take us a little while to come to terms with hypothyroidism but being on the forum enables us to get hints/help from other members who've had similar problems.

I hope you improve your health quickly.
