Yes, I had that symptom for months on end. On days when my reflux hits, I tend to stay in and lie down instead of being about and feeling dizzy. I also read somewhere that this dizziness is a symptom of the medication you may be on. I was on 40 mg of Prilosec at that time, and as soon as my dose was reduced to 20 mg a day, my dizziness is minimal. Hope this helps.
