Update... The eye bubble has gone down (cool) and (off subject) we have pulled out of buying our house.
The bank tried to screw us over having already given us a letter confirming that we had the mortgage.

What exactly causes this phenomenon?

The list of side effects for these pills (Protonex?) is incredible... the top four are something like Headaches, Abdominal Pain, Liver Disorder and some eye disorder (I've had all four!) but their are literally hundreds of side effects which have occured as a result of taking these things.
The eye thing mostly went away yesterday evening (I stopped taking the pills) and there is very little sign of it today. It was more like an alergic reaction than anything else.

I have mild GERD and both daughters had severe cases as infants. This is why I have no sleep cycle.

Yeah - typical! Any other substance creating such havoc with your system would be banned outright as a highly toxic substance. Did they lunch out the clinical trials or something?

Re: Looking for sympathy
Sorry to hear about all of your ills City and of course pulling out of the house deal. Why did they say you had a mortgage and then start jacking you around?
On the GERD side of things, never had it....but I've had severe heartburn. I found that stress and eating crappy food all played a huge part in things. Couldn't always help the stress, but excercise and a very bland diet helped tremendously.
Unfortunately over here there is a pill for everything.....but just doing some common sense things can do wonders.
Best of luck.

Here in the US (and everywhere, really) you MUST read up on your conditions and medications. Doctors are great sources of information; and they wield the power of the prescribing pen and the surgical knife. But the decision is yours at the end of the day. People who will comparison shop 25 stores to find the lowest price on a settee, will often not question their medical treatment at all!
Your health is your most valuable asset. Treat it that way.

I've never been this sick in my entire life...

Watch what American junk you're eating. It's designed to make you sick to make the rich richer.
Ssshhhh. Don't tell know one else. I could get in trouble
