I have a constant hunger pang and it's so annoying, I've tried PPI and over the counter stuff and nothing is working..

Try switching the PPI. We have one poster on here (Karik) who had to try different options and eventually found one that worked. I had to switch from omnaprozole to pantoprozole (spelling is way off), and then also take it twice a day for a while. Check in with your doc and see about adjusting it. Hang in there!

try warm drinks - i find cold drinks sometimes make me think i'm hungry - but a cup of tea will actually fill me up.  Maybe if it's constant it's not hunger?  IDK, i rarely feel actual hunger so I guess I am a lucky one.

are you getting 64+ounces of liquid a day? Dehydration mimics hunger.

I had to try 4 different acid reduceres before we hit on one that worked and that I wasn't allergic too (so weird!).  Prescription Protonix finally worked for me.  And those acid/reflux pangs feel exactly like hunger pangs
