Q: Zegerid Success For Ulcer/gerd?

Hi,

i'm new to this-awoke july 5th with choking sensation and chills, md ruled out allergic reaction and sent me to the gastroenterologist. I'm also having a bloated abdomen, burning sensation/dull ache in stomach, shortness of breath (no heart problems-they checked that already) and continue to awake nightly with acid (heat in throat, bad taste & breath, trouble breathing/swallowing). So, I was prescribed aciphex last week but had bad side effects (nausea, cramping, high blood pressure, depression, insomnia). Now I started zegerid today (40 mg; powder mixed in glass of water-tastes awful). Has anyone taken zegerid? Success? Any crazy side effects like aciphex?? Thanks-i really want to know what's wrong with me, this has completely changed my life since july 5th!!!
