Schatzki Ring and Omeprazole

I had been having on and off episodes of getting food stuck in my esophagus for years – mostly things like white meat chicken or pasta. Finally went to the G.I. doctor and after an endoscopy, he said I had a Schatzki Ring and wanted me to take omeprazole 20 mg for the rest of my life. I’m concerned that this will cause me to have malabsorption vitamin and mineral issues. So far I’ve been trying to head that off by only taking omeprazole on weekends when I know my schedule is abnormal and I wind up eating things like meat late, which will set off my GERD. Thoughts? Anybody else out there have the ring and what are they doing about it?

Repatha Temperature

I know you’re supposed to refrigerate Repatha long-term, but I also heard that it’s OK if you let it be at room temperature for a while. I’m traveling and it was not refrigerated for about 12 hours. What do you think?

Mexican food for erections?

I know this sounds ridiculous, but can Mexican food, or the ingredients in it, get you hard? I’m in Texas right now. I took 10mg of tadalafil 48 hours ago, which is nothing out of the ordinary for me. Ate some authentic Mexican food with al pastor, pumpkin seeds, and a very spicy sauce that included peanuts and other things. Went to bed, and I swear I’ve been hard all night. Thoughts?

Differential gear oil and transfer case oil

My dealer recommended differential gear oil and transfer case oil at 40,000 miles on my wife’s 2022 Rogue Sport. I do regular oil changes and did the transmission service at 40,000, but anything else seems excessive. My wife mostly drives on highways back and forth to work in New Jersey. What do you think?

Daily Cialis Timing Question

Hi there. I’m a 59 male and have been taking 5mg tadalafil for about a year. I do take breaks from time to time. My question is what do you think is the best time to take it? I like how it helps in the bedroom and for morning wood, but gym pumps when I lift in the morning are great, too. I also have GERD, though I don’t find tadalafil affects it. What do you think?
