It's not just an antibiotic, there's an antacid and one other pill. The sleeve may not be healed enough to handle the meds at one time.

I had H Pylori and a hiatal hernia as well but it was found prior to surgery during my endoscopy. I had to take an antibiotic as well as an antacid for 2 weeks straight. Prior to that, I had no problems or previous stomach issues. My surgeon said it was probably not a major problem and it may have been a long time before it could have become a problem. I'm not even sure how long I had it but I'm glad it was treatable!

Love the blog so far! I had my surgery 3/3. I will be continuing to follow your journey. Congrats on your loss so far!

Thanks so much!! I'm excited, nervous...every emotion I can feel I'm going through them all! They're calling for a major snowstorm in the Philadelphia area Sunday night into Monday...6-12 inches of snow so I'm praying I get to the hospital safely and everything goes as planned!! I'll be thinking of you all who are also scheduled Monday and am hoping to post as soon as I can!

Congrats!!

Hi Jerziegirl! We share the same surgery date! My liquid diet is getting better everyday and I've lost about 10 pounds so far. Good luck to you and I will definitely be following along on your journey!!

I have 2 weeks of the Optifast shakes. My surgeon said the pre-op diet is to make sure your liver shrinks. It makes the surgery easier for them.

Just received my surgery date 3/3! I like Muscle Milk. I'm also going to try Body Fortress next. I heard that one is good as well.

Just got the call with my surgery date! 3/3/14....so excited I finally have a date!
