I have a cronic cough for the last 2 years. I recently was dignosed with 2 ulcers through the lining of my vocal cord. I still cough but not as much however I seem to be more forgetful. I am not sure if that is related to this medication.

I have been dealing with GERD for 8 years and this finally hepls. I have my good days and my bad but overall this has helped. My only problem is how much it costs. I dont have health insurance and I was told that it is very expensive. I sure hope I can afford it.

After 2 years on Nexium I developed Osteoprosis. Lost 40% bone density bcoz of loss of calcium. You need acid to build up calcium. So i stop Nexium and went on Calcium regimen. Also, I drink Water every hour and before sleeping and halfway in my sleep i drink a glass of water to stabilize stomach acid. It works, No more Nexium for more than a year now. Goodbye Nexium hello Water !!!!
