I've got this small echogenic foci in my gallbladder that's 2.9mm and it's sticking to the anterior wall. My doctor suggested I take Nexpro RD40 capsules, and I've been on them for over 45 days. But every time I try stopping them, I get this burning feeling in my stomach. Any ideas on what I should do?

I'm really struggling with lax lesophagitis and pangastritis for the past decade, and I've been on PPIs for about the same amount of time. The side effects are becoming a bit too much to handle. Should I think about surgery as an option, or just stick it out with the PPIs?
Surgery may be an option for you if your symptoms are not well-controlled with PPIs and if you're experiencing intolerable side effects. However, continuing with medications and making lifestyle adjustments may also improve your condition
