Hunger pangs!

Do Anyone get hunger pains or is it stomach acid????....I've been having what seems like hunger pains for about 2 weeks now. It only occurs when I'm finished eating about 1-2 hours later....my surgeon gave me a Rx for acid reflux after surgery so I'm saying to myself I don't have heartburn so decided not to take it. Do I need this to eliminate this feeling??

  • Girl take your pills! Even if you don't "feel" acid its in there and it could cause all these symptoms PLUS ulcers In your new stomach!

  • Yes my dr prescribed me omeprazole twice a day for those reasons it is acid

  • This will keep the acid in your stomach under control which will aid healing to your stomach

Yes omg prilosec is extremely expensive...I was in a rush today but I'm going to keep looking tomorrow I'll call my PvP in the am to see if I can get a Rx

If you can't get an Rx, The generic omeprazole is cheaper and right next to the Prilosec on the shelf. If you need to take a lot, you can get it in bulk at Costco or SAMs.

i constantly forget to take my doses...i will start first thing in the morning taking them every single day. ugh.

Hunger pangs can actually be thirst in disguise. If you are feeling hungry 1-2 hours after eating, drink your fluids. It helps, and you need to do it anyway. Good luck!
