H Pylori

    I have h- pylori also. I've been through two rounds of antibiotics and still can't get rid of it. The doctor says he will still do the surgery. I'm so glad to hear that you are doing so well!

    This last round was called a PREV PACK. It came with daily doses of ore acid, flagella, 500 mg, and 1000 mg of another antibiotic that escapes me at the moment. I understand it works for most people. :0)
