H Pylori??? If you have had it, what were all your symptoms??

I was just tested for this today with some blood work. I get the worst stomach aches, gas, diarrhea and it debilitating at times.

It doesnt happen all the time, just once a month maybe. I have been tested for everything under the sun and this is one test that hasnt been done

Re: H Pylori??? If you have had it, what were all your symptoms??

that said i was treated for it.

Re: H Pylori??? If you have had it, what were all your symptoms??

I tested positive for it recently and had it treated because of my unexplained reflux issues. Some people test positive and have no symptoms, which in that case it stays untreated.

I found the treatment (with Pylera) worse than my actual symptoms. The nausea combined with the number of pills you have to take is insane. It's been a few weeks since my last dose, and I'm almost done recovering from side effects.
