Hello dear. I feel your symptoms are more of psychological feeling. This happens sometimes post surgery where patient feels all these due to anxiety.
Though prevacid tablet is practically safe but in high doses and chronic use may lead to depletion of magnesium in the body and symptoms like- dizziness, confusion; fast or uneven heart rate; tremors (shaking) or jerking muscle movements; feeling jittery;muscle cramps, muscle spasms in your hands and feet etc
But in your case i feel it has got nothing to do with prevacid and the symptoms are more of psychological. You can wait for a day or two, relax and then see your physician.
Hope i have answered your question. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions. I ll be glad to help you.
All the best
With warm regards
