I've been taking them for years as well. after my bloods last week I had a huge reality check. Thank God I'm getting surgery for the GERD at the end of the month but damage is done. I've have zero signs. My daughter was in the room with me and the doctor just pointed at circled the paperwork instead of talking.

There is a strong association between chronic kidney disease , liver damage with PPIs. The worst part is you show no signs and symptoms until it's too late.

That would be a tremendous class action law suit. If it manifests as true.

I can imagine the amount of dollar signs that would be attached to that

You may not be study only found a small percentage of users experience it. I haven't read up on it in a while so I didn't or I can't remember what type of kidney injury it does. Or would it show the classic signs of drug induced renal failure.
