They put me on prilosec/nexium back in 1996. I hated that crap. They thought I had acid reflux. I really think it is nerves...

My generally crappy attitude about medical care is based solely on bad experience. LOTS of it. I have only had one... maybe two... Doctors that have actually helped me. The other half dozen or so that I have bad feelings towards were either straight up asshats or didn't help me at all.
