Question: I had an endoscopy done and H. Ployri was found. I was on treatment Nexium Ph7 and finished the course with only a couple side effects. One been rapid heart rate and shortness of breath, which I still get from time to time. After I finished the 7 day course, I had no symptoms of gnawing or pain, no neausa, felt great. After 4 to 5 days, the feeling of rapid heart rate and shortness of breath still occur, but now I experience food like symptoms stuck in my throat. I researched online that this is still just acid reflux. After Ph7, I'm still taking Nexium 40mg (1 per day). Sometimes after I eat, I feel funny within my entire body and feel like if I should go to the hospital. I tell myself these are just side effects of nexium or acid reflux and the feeling starts to go away. I'm told to continue taking Nexium 40mg for 6 months. Should I be concerned about difficulty getting food down (only sometimes) and rapid heart rate / shortness of breath.

Thank you very much for answering.

This would indicate that Helicobater has been eradicated if I've had no signs of gnawing pain for over a week now?

However, the symptoms I'm experiencing now are freaking me out, because it feels like my body is shutting down, but then after an hour or two, I become right again. This happens the most during mornings. *acid reflux*

Is this due to taking Nexium medication and I have nothing to worry about and let the nexium do it's course?

Like you have mentioned, if it becomes too much, I may have to switch medications.

Again, thank you so much, as you have giving me great peace of mind.
