Treatment For Stomach Pain Despite Taking Dexilant?

I have been diagnosed with functional dyspepsia. I have been taking Protonix for 8 years and the doctor says evidently it is no longer working. I have stomach pain daily. It varies from severe burning to gnawing and aching. I have tried to take Dexilant and Prilosec OTC and neither seemed to help but both made my stomach worse so I only took them for 2 days each. I am also taking Carafate, but just started on it full time but it has not been much help yet. Do you have any ideas because the doctors have told me there is nothing they can do about this.

HI
Thank for choosing HCM
I appreciate your concern, I would advise to stop taking the drugs for this instead take care in diet and life style changing of this from grass rooted level could give nice result, at the most for symptomatic relief carminative mixture can be tried, with PPI (Omeprazole 40 mg once in day), have some fresh alkali vegetable (Green leafy) drink more water, try to eat fresh food, eat little less, stay away from stress, hope this information helps.
