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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
