Finally, we found out what's causing the pain, and it's what I've feared all along....Monday, more than 3 weeks after the pain started, DH had intestinal bleeding. Still, our family dr is MIA, and we couldn't find another dr. I spoke with the emergency contact at Maccabi, and they sent us to a family dr, who luckily, didn't take time off during Passover. He immediately prescribed Omeprazole, to be taken half an hour before eating. The improvement in pain started 2 days after. PITY this pill wasn't prescribed together with the pain pill. We would have been in a whole different, pain free situation, by now. Even went ahead with our planed trip.... So, as a lesson from our "experience" -- whenever you're prescribed a strong pain pill, ask for an additional pill which will coat your intestine/stomach against adverse side effects. I'm so disappointed in our family dr, that he didn't bother to do just that. 24 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After my heart attack over 3 years ago I was prescribed Lanzoprazol long term to protect my stomach from taking 75mg Aspirin for blood thinning. I'm sorry your husband has suffered because he was not prescribed omeprazole with his pain killers although I understand this medication is for short term use only. Sending you our best wishes for your family's safety and your husband's health. Graham. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much 🙏, Graham, for pointing this out. DH is also prescribed 75mg Aspirin, but without the Lanzoprazol.... May be the Aspirin coupled with the pain pill had a double adverse effect. I'm going to check it with my pharmacist cousin, who, from the very beginning, was baffled that the coating pill was not prescribed.... And, yes, the omeprazole was prescribed for 2 weeks only. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were looking forward to your trip and had to cancel. My husband started taking Omeprazole yesterday in advance of his 2nd knee replacement on Tuesday . He has no qualms about getting it done . He had a much easier time than @Sea Dog . After hearing the latest news from Israel be safe and take care !

Actually my replaced knee is doing great. I think I’ve finally turned the corner. my other knee is the one giving me fits now. The synvisc injection has helped. But after I work out and do a lot of walking my other knee is very sore. I probably will get the other knee replaced but I just want to wait awhile as it takes a lot out of me physically and mentally. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can purchase Omeprazole without a prescription here. There are several brand names, the most common being Prilosec. I'm glad he is getting some relief. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to be fit to fully enjoy cruising and of course your activities at home . Someone once told me about cataract surgery which I was putting off that it was inevitable and should get it done because I wasn’t getting any younger .

Those towers flanking the Luna Park sign in picture reminds me of the Chrysler Building in Manhattan. I’ve not noticed the similarities before. But you’re right they do. Think I’ve mentioned this before but on our first night in NYC, my DD excitedly posted a photo of the beautiful night view we had of the Empire State Building from our hotel room. We had a view of the Chrysler 🤣 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
