What Causes Headache, Abdominal Discomfort And Vomiting After Taking Prilosec?

I take prilosec 40mg at bedtime and I ve been having a lot of headaches sick at my stomach and vomiting. I ve also been very jittery. I thought it was my nerves but it happens in the evening after I take my prilosec. Could the prilosec be causing this? I also have a lot of stomach pain.
