The bacteria is very idiotic....they make you feel weak and ill all together. It's effect doesn't remain only in stomach. You can feel it everywhere in your body. For those who haven't faced this challenge..plz be careful with your healthy.
Dear Rekha, i have also same problems, but now me using baking soda when ever i feel something wrong in my stomach and it really works. Please try it and let me know if you also feel better with it.
Same feeling . I was suffering for past six months still feeling the pain. One after the other , feeling pain here and there. Lots of emotional stress. Very tough to beat., tried mastic gum, manuka honey and all other natural supplements ,its still the same. Are you on medications still ? , let us know what happen to your h pylori test. By the way suggest something which helps to cure your ulcer and burning symptoms.
Tell us more about baking soda remedies. How do yo you prepare and use
Thank u soo much muhammad....i will definitely try it if it works....
Oh ok i thought m the only one who is suffering like this way ...i also tried evrythng that could help....i hv changed my all diet...i dont eat oily,spicy and citric food at all...still suffering....tried homeopathic medicine...probiotics,digestive enzyme n all i cn hear n see if it could help... still m teking acid blockers medicine....but its also nt helping...m.teking acid blockers medicine for 9 months...its crazy....nwzz lets see till how long it could bother me.....
so painful. I am trying to avoid all the acid blockers .Rather i prefer rice with spinach .I am feeling ok with spinach. Need to carry for atleast three months to bring back my body. after meals, eating raw apple to neutralise the acids. Even i am trying to avoid the rice with yoghurt . As diary products produce more acid. Lets hope things will change. Need to drink lots of water rather than antacids.
Just take one teaspone of bakidng soda and mix it in one glass of normal water for 1 to 2 minutes then drink all the way after food min 1 hour.
How did you find out h pylori infection? What test u did?
I am also in same situation.. Lot of burping, nausea, loss of appetite and burning on upper part of stomach.
Doctor has directly diagnosed me with indigestion by GI but now I don't think thats the case.
I dont want to have ulcers. I have heard how difficult it is to recover from it. M facing similar issue since one year. If my diagnosis is not correct then m in trouble.
At first doctor told me to do breathe test.....I did it but dey dint found hpylori....but my problms dint go away...i had nausea,burping,abdonimal pain,weight loss...(pain moves from side to side of abdomen)...again i consult with doctor and then told me to do endoscopy...dey took biospy of stomach...n den dey found hpylori...but i waz surprised dey dint found hpylori in breathe test....last tym when i test for hyplori dey test my blood for stomach bacteria...hpylori wazz positive that tym...this is second tym m having phylori even i wazz taking continuosly medicine for that i got pylori again....this has messed my almost 2 yrs...hope to get rid of this nw....so i want everybody not to neglect this....bcoz of this i got ulcers when i did test for first tym.. nw i had hpylori n chronic gastristis coz of this bacteria....but i wonder i was on treatment for this bacteria..even i wazz teking medicine but as soon as my medicine dose was about to end i got same symptoms n pylori....nw m on medication for this
So u took medicines twice for h pylori..?
Did medicines help?
How are u recovering? Have u tried home remedies?
Remedies told by parents like drinking luke warm water in morning, eat bananas, anjeer n all.Keeping always hydrated. Not skipping meals.
I am actly trying this and noticing very very small change. But yes its helping.how about u? Does it help?
One of the doctor in pune suggested me for biopsy but i have some medical procedure fear so not going for it.
I get bit burning pain on upper side of stomach In between. But not daily sometimes. Nausea is sort of permanent. I Can not have lunch properly Feel full very early.i Feel hungry mostly in afternoon.
Ya i hv taken medicine twice for hyplori.. I have tried some home remedies...since m teking this mediction again I hvnt got ny symptoms yet....endoscopy is lil
Scary but I did it two times...nwzzz hope u get well soon too....
I don't believe they are supposed to test for H - Pylori with a blood test if you've already tested positive and took the treatment. Your blood would test positive , even if you didn't have H - Pylori the second time. I was diagnosed with it in June and took a 14 day treatment. I'm still neauseated of and on. Plus I still have abdominal pain. I don't think the antibiotic treatment is much of a cure. To be retested you need a breath test , a stool test or another endoscopy. The medical community claims very few people get sick from this in developed countries. I think they don't really know how often people get it. Too many people on just this one site have it. And , it seems very few actually get cured. I've pretty much just given up on the medical profession on this. If you don't have money , then I don't think you get cured. Best of luck to you on fighting this.
I already did breathe test,stool test but not found hpylori....my sympotms dint go away n lastly in endoscopy(biospy)...hpylori was found....
Ok. Well I hope everything works out for you. I certainly don't have the answers. I don't think I'm any better off than I was before treatment. Maybe even worse. But if I find any an real answers to the H - Pylori nightmare I'll surely pass it on to you.
I think that anti biotics are not for everyone. I am in this whole mess due to antibiotics.
I had never taken medicines more then 3 days. But this time I took it for 1.5 months and started getting these symptoms.
Hope you feel better. Are trying any alternative that's working for you? May be that will help me. Certainly I am not going for any medical procedure or medicines now . I will try all home remedies I can and try to get rid of this.
Don't worry as like u so many people have same problem , i also suffered long time but by changing my diet , sleep and water intake i control it. Before half hour to meal take 2 glass of water and then after meal 1 hour later start for taking water . At least take 5 ltr water per day . After taking meal emidiuate sleep and taking so much meal with full of stomach is a main cause of acidity, still you can't change that habit you can't cure from acidity. Take sleep after 2:30 hour of taking meal. Mostly use salad with meal at least one type of salad . Don't consume fruit with meal cause digestive problem or produce gas. Also avoid milk , sweet and dairy product . After cure you will be start all diet with limit or as your body response .
Hi vishal,
Were you diagnosed with ulcer?did you heal it? How long did it take?
I too found that water helps. I used to feel nauseous in morning. But I started drinking water, morning is now great for me.. But cannot say about rest of the day. I will try you suggestion about drinking water before and after meal. Though sleep part is bit difficult due to work.
Yes rekha25075 i have the same symptoms not bit differrent everything the same i had this issue for over 2 year now i still remember the very first day when everything started h palory aint no joke they do make your life stresfull and alot of anxiety symptoms of heart attack shortness of breath weakness always tired can sleep due to acid reflux from h palory i am a 26 male from chicago got tested for h palory 3 times on 8/26/2016 i am currently on a different treament and omg it help me since day one i felt the difference my wife notice right of way my mood change presure on my chest little by little is going away less burning still some acid reflux but i am barely on day 4 with the treatment is way different pills than the previously 2 treatments (previously 2 used the same ones)
Guys like rekha said if you have it treat it because long run cancer thats a for sure thing good luck guys and also remember get an andoscopy do not waste your time and money on stool ,blood or breath test they will always come out negative i am telling you because i seen diferent doctor. till i decided to go with real profesional advice a gi doctor even the doctor said to me only andoscopy is a for sure thing with h palory to get tested and make sure you got cure.
