I’m pushing 40 and my knees are just fine. My esophageal sphincter on the other hand is very angryface. Omeprazole helps but it’s very much thrown in the towel.

Ugh, kill me.

You should probably switch from omeprazole to famotidine. I used to be on omeprazole until my doc noted that there are indications of it be a carcinogen when used long term. Switching was a non-issue for me.

Of course, I'm just some rando on the internet. You may want to seek some reliable info on the topic. Look for PPI vs H2 receptor antagonist.

That doesn’t work for me. We tried using it first and switched to Omeprazole.

Same for me, sucks knowing that I have to take PPIs for pretty much the rest of my life or deal with constant heartburn and an increased cancer risk...
