This was one of the many meds I tried for GERD ... it's called Protonix here in the US. It gave me really awful D. So, be careful! Also, trying to stick it out may not get you anywhere -- when I was struggling to find a med for GERD, my doctor said that if I was still having side effects after 1-2 weeks I'd be having them the whole time. I'm not sure how accurate this is.

I really loved Aciphex (Pariet up there). No side effects whatsoever and it totally quashed my reflux. There is no generic, though, which for me made it expensive (at the time $40 copay). If you can't stomach the Pantoloc, ask your GI about Aciphex.

Glad your appointment went well, or at least better. It's too bad he couldn't give you a good answer about your back pain, though.
