Have you consulted your doctor and are they aware that you've been taking it continuously for so long?

The issue here is that these types of medications are not actually recommended for such long-term usage. Omeprazole and its relatives, are usually only used for 2 to 4 months, then discontinued, so they haven't actually been studied for their long-term effects.
