H.Plyori symptoms

[ohwell123]

hi ive been told I have this bacteria just going to doctors to get antibiotics

will this explain my chronic heartburn, indigestion belly popping and banging etc

basically I feel fine until I use my stomach then I feel awful

ive had a camera down there and everything came back normal apart from small hernia not even any throat damage ie GERD

anyone else had it?

Yes about 12 years ago, had the 2x antibiotics and omeprazole and haven't had a reoccurrence. I've had stomach issues for years and this was picked up on a blood test. Many people have helicobacter pylori with no symptoms.

Good to get it treated as it can lead to ulcers.

did you have gastro symptoms like me Lesley? as usual like you say they reckon 85% of people don't know its there but these are the same websites that reckon loads of drugs don't have side effects...yeah right

I just finished up treatment about a month ago. My appetite has came back and my stomach issues have decreased a lot! I lost 15lbs within 2 weeks from not being able to eat much of anything. Be sure to get a probiotic to take to help with the effects of the antibiotics!
