I took it before surgery & I felt it worked. I'm now on omeprazole.

I've taken dexilant and it didn't work for me, personally. I've also taken aciphex and nexium and neither of those worked for me either. Acid reflux is my enemy and I see the dr. for it again on the 24th...I suffer horribly. I think I've read other threads where you're also having problems, is that right?

Well keep me updated, I'm interested in knowing where I need to go from here also...I can't live on nexium and tums alone, lol!

I take it. I've never had actual reflux bit I do feel hunger and hoped it was just acid. Seems that I'm actually hungry. :( I just deal.

Dexilant is the only thing that works for me. I've been on it for years. My food and water still comes back up but at least it doesn't burn! Sucks how expensive it is. I'm also mad cause I read AFTER I got my surgery that if you have gerd you shouldn't get the sleeve. My bari surgeon knew I had gerd and did the sleeve anyways. So now I'm kinda stuck. Don't want to do a revision to gastric bypass so I just deal and hope I don't get cancer.
