Does anyone have pains when they're hungry

In early recovery my hunger pains were very, well..painful. I started taking omeprazole 40 mg (Prilosec) and the pains have subsided. I think it gets better over time, now it just feels like regular hunger. But some days it rears its ugly head and is back!

I'm with Healthier2day on this one. I've read on these forums quite often that acid build up in your stomach after the sleeve sometimes feels like hunger pains. I had a constant feeling of hunger for a couple of days and decided to go back on my omeprazole. I did the trick! The hunger pains went away.
