What Causes Burning Sensation In Stomach After Eating Food While On Prilosec?

Hello...I have a burning feeling in my stomach after I eat as well as a gassy feeling high in my abdomen. I took Prilosec for quite a few years but stopped when I started having attacks that were extremely painful. These attacks were intense pain under my sternum that radiated around to my back. After some research, I discovered that medications like Prilosec can kill the good bacteria in your digestive tract. I also started eating lots of yogurt and taking probiotics. Everything was good for several months but now I am having frequent acid reflux again as well as the burning in my stomach and gassy feeling high in my abdomen. Should I start taking the Prilosec again?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is the vague kind of abdomen pain and it could be due to colicky pain and it can be given try with Tab Dicyclomine with Acetaminophen till it is being diagnosed but it could be nonspecific and will be alright soon, if the symptoms persist then it may needs some investigations hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
