I feel your pain, I was taking Aciphex for two months and finally switched to tagamet, over the counter and it worked much better. I had two hospital visits over this awful stuff. So I am very aware of what I eat now, as not to trigger another attack, which usually happens at 2am while I am groggy and tired. Thank you for mentioning it, so I can be extra careful during the RAI. Mine is sched for 6/27.
