I have to get rid of H Pylori before I can be scheduled for surgery!



Recommended Posts

So when I went to my consultation with the doctor they tested me for H Pylori, and it came back positive, so they stated after completing the 10 day antibiotics, i had to wait 4 weeks to be retested. But I am a little nervous based on other posts that it is difficult to cure. Please provide me feedback on what happened after you did a treatment to get rid of h pylori to qualify to schedule your surgery.

I'm so sorry that your progress has slowed! I know how frustrating it has to be but look on the bright side, they are just trying to get you into the best shape so you will have fewer complications after! I know it's just another delay in an already lengthy process and I'm sorry. I just hope that it will go away after the first treatment so you can keep moving and get your surgery date!!

Keep us posted and know I'm sending you good energy for speedy healing!!

  1. you guys are awesome, this is my first time making a post, and usually i just stalk everyone elses posts on here, but I really am nervous after hearing of everyone elses process. Some had to do treatment 2-3 times before being cured, and I need to lose weight badly. I'm also looking for some home rememdies to help cure this little joker. I plan to start chaning my diet and eating habits now.

H Pylori can be difficult to get rid of, but it doesn't mean that it is. I had H Pylori last summer, took my 2 weeks worth of high doses of antibiotics and it was gone. I still felt pain in my stomach and intestines from it,as it was an active infection for me. I will keep my fingers crossed for you that you only need one treatment :) . One thing I did do afterward was eat a lot of yogurt to rebuild up the good bacteria in my stomach and intestines.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
