Does anyone have any idea what these symptoms mean? For about 6 weeks now Ive had a gnawing pain and feeling of fullness after I eat most anything,I have been taking nexium or prilosec 40mg per day for about 4 weeks,and have had very little relief,I even took 2 antibiotics for 2 weeks for possible H.pylori,but still no relief.Any ideas would be appreciated,also how long does a ulcer take to heal?

From what I've read, Prilosec is ineffective for a lot of people...it sure has been for me. I have a kind of gnawing pain, but it happens more when I'm hungry than when I've eaten. I hope you can get to the bottom of your pain! And more responses.

I was having the same problems except with nausea. I was getting sick after every meal. It turned out to be my gallbladder. I was taking Nexium and Prilosec for the longest time and it didn't help at all.
