 3  acid reflux panic attacks shortness of breath feeling of doom or dread panicky around large groups dizzyness sweating headaches night sweats problems concentrating short temper. prilosec actually helps my symptoms but the side effects are horendous this started in april of 11 i have been on the drug for 6 years and never had an issue until recently 3 visits to the er because i thought i was having a heart attack scans blood tests they say im perfectly fine. i tried weening myself the heartburn came back horrible and then the fever and not being able to sleep came back. I took 1 pill this morning and the panic attacks kicked right back in so now i know what it is for sure i cant handle this anymore i feel like im going insane. M 41 6 years

 3  acid reflux update i posted recently about my conditions from taking prilosec for 6 years. after almost 2 weeks off the drug normality is coming back,no more night fevers no more panic attacks i still have the tingling in my forhead and right arm but slowly subsiding. my personality has done a 180 my friendlyness is back going out with my friends more and no more dread. i still have an emotional episode once in awhile for some reason my sensitivity to certain things must have been exagerated while on this med but im sure it to will subside.im glad im getting back to normal the feeling is like being in my 20's again. i have been using tums as a temp replacement not eating late and drinking lotts of water seems to help but i would rather have the heartburn that all of the side effects for sure !!!
