Roo- did your doc recommend the PPI before the NSAID? Usually a PPI needs to be taken long term in order to work and something like a Pepcid or Zantac would be better for a short term preventative.
Take that, you coffee haters!

It's omeprazole...have no idea what brand name that translates to though. Might look into gavascon or something to take in future...the stomach thinning thing has me a bit paranoid lol.
Omeprazole = Prilosec...which does nada, zip, zilch for me. I have to use others.

They should have included me in the study, lol. I seriously drink LOTS of coffee everyday and haven't ever been dehydrated (I know I need more water, just don't do it) so something has to be keeping my hydrated. I've drank full lead coffee from 6 weeks out with no problems.
I want to clarify, I do not advocate anyone doing what I do because plain water is important for our healthy. This is my struggle and I do try every day to get as much as I can in, and I find grabbing a bottle of water at room temperature does help.
