I like my doctor. I went to go see her due to persistent nausea of the type I associate with my reflux (worst in the morning) and a random scattering of nauseous episodes throughout the day, with no other funny symptoms. I was on 10mg Losec until this started. Shortly after, I doubled the dose to 20mg. That stopped working after a week. So I went to see my GP, did the full exam.

She found: glands up (not unusual for me, they appear to flare a little at random intervals), I don't have peritonitis but there are sore spots in the same general area, and there is nothing else wrong.

So we decided that it's probably a gastro thingy interfering with the reflux, and she gave me a sample pack of a stronger drug in the same family of proton-pump inhibitors, and told me to give her a call if it worked so that she could organise a prescription.

It worked and I don't feel sick. But now I have more drugs next to the bed. That means there is less room for books on the dresser...
