I've been dealing with acid reflux for the past three months, which seemed to come on out of nowhere. It's still not going away, and I'm taking omeprazole 10mg once or twice daily. I don't drink, I'm not overweight, and I don't smoke or anything like that. Lately, I've also been oversleeping, needing naps, getting some headaches, and feeling low. After some blood tests, my doctor gave me 1000mg of vitamin D and calcium. Could there be a common cause linking all these symptoms together?
