1747349 tn?1332683680 So if your symtoms do not resolve in the time frame that your doctor suggests it should and you are still positive for H. pylori, you may need an additional round of antibiotics. I would keep this in mind. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. mkh9 An increasing number of infected individuals are found to harbour antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Avatar n tn I was diagnosed with H-Pylori a month ago. I took Biaxin, Amoxicillin and now Carafate, I feel no relief at all. How long does this last?
1364835 tn?1278606642 Oh ok I thought you meant he tested for H pylori and it was positive and he said you did not need treatment. I am not familiar with the IGA test so what did he say the positive was for?
Avatar f tn Relax. H pylori can definitely cause those symptoms. Just give some time for the tissue to heal and you should notice a huge improvement. You had an abdominal CTscan, do that should rule out ant chance of stomach cancer. I know when we are sick, our minds can get the best of us!! Keep doing what your doing and let time and the Prevpak heal ! Feel better !
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, My mom was recently diagnosed with Hep C associated cirrhosis. She has had some complications, including esophageal varices and ascites. She remains fairly well compensated and does not exhibit symptoms such as fatigue or confusion. During an endoscopy her doctor also noticed an ulcer and tested her for H pylori (which was positive). He's prescribed Prevpac to kill the bacteria and heal the ulcer.
Avatar f tn is any one can remond any good treatment of H Pylori which is resissnt to amoxicillin and clarithromycin This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/228342'>How long to cure H.Pylori ?</a>.
Avatar f tn However I recently had a sinus infection and took Amoxicillin for 7 days. Here it is, 2 weeks after stopping the Amoxicillin, I am having severe heartburn again. Did the antibiotic have anything to do with this?
Avatar f tn Patm comes from h pylori for sure. I was disgnosed with h pylori after getting an endoscopy done. I’ve been taking meds for it’s. It’s a lot of medication. It’s clarithromycin 500, amoxicillin 500 mg, Lansaprozal 30 mg twice a day for about 10 days. I noticed a huge difference. People are not reacting to me as much. It hasn’t gone away completely but it’s been reduced to about 50% and I just started taking it 2 days ago.
Avatar n tn So I'm currently on treatment for H. Pylori and taking Lanzoprazole 30mg+Amoxicillin 1g+Claritromicin 500mg, and I want to take a vitamin and mineral supplementation, my question is, will there be any interaction between this treatment and the supplementation?
Avatar f tn So 1 week ago a have been dignosed with ucler and h pylori. Had symtoms for a month till they were able to figure out what it was... Bloading ,stomach pain ,loud stomach , constipation, nausea. Anyway I been taking meds for 6 days now ( 3 different types of antibiotics) the first 4days I felt much better but the pain came back again specialy under rib cage and loud stomach I have 8 days more left of treatment.
Avatar n tn I was recently dx with H pylori. Along with the H pylori I have this weird body odor which smells slightly of ammonia and somewhat meaty? I have this weird taste in my mouth as well. I was taking a prevpac for 14 days and I thought that would take care of the weird body odor as well as kill off the pylori bugs. My stomach feels better but I still smell weird? I also have bright red blood in my stool with each stool. At this point I have no idea what's going on.
Avatar f tn So this is day nine on the prilosec and day seven on the antibiotics (Ammoxicillin and clarithromycin)for the H pylori. My symptoms are still there SOMETIMES after eating. For the most part it has been a bland diet, except for the exception of a hamburger yesterday which caused extreme discomfort. Could this be a side effect of the medicine or my stomach trying to heal still? Please let me know if I should tough it out with the antibiotics or could this be something else?
Avatar m tn I had a blood test and biospies during my endoscopy and both did not show any H. Pylori. I forgot to mention that my doctor says its non-ulcer dyspepsia.
Avatar f tn Is there any relation between the H. Pylori and my skin problems? (My skin looks red in the cheeks and around the nose... also looks dry ad sometimes with acne) 3. Is there any relation between the H. Pylori and my eyes discomfort? 4. What kind of serious secondary effects I could have after taking the medicaments, could this affect any other organ? 5. How fast grow the polyps? 6. Can the polyps disappear by themselves? 7. Should I accept to remove my gallbladder in case that the polyp is 1cm?
Avatar m tn The patients also had upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and gastric biopsy for the detection of H. pylori using histopathology and PCR. RESULTS: Helicobacter spp. DNA was detected in two out of 75 liver biopsy samples (2.6%), which were typed as H. pylori by DNA sequencing. One of these patients had chronic hepatitis C infection (man, 51 years old) and the other had nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (woman, 44 years old). Fifty-two out of 75 of the patients (69.3%) had H.
Avatar m tn prescribed the triple therapy that consist of Lansoprazole, Clarithromycin, and Amoxicillin. The problem is that she told me to take only one pill of of Amoxicillin (500 mg) every 12 hours but its supposed to be two pills (1g) every 12 hours, and I already finished the cycle. Now I am very concerned because I know that this bacteria becomes resistant to antibiotics. What should I do?, how long should I wait before I take another H. Pylori test?
Avatar n tn I just had a two week h pylori treatment using triple antibiotic one of is Amoxicillin. I was told that Amoxicillin has a minor side effect of hairy tongue. My doctor told me that this normal and that I don’t need any medication for it to go. It really makes me disgusted when I see myself in the mirror. Is there a way that I can make it go faster?
Avatar m tn Someone on here recommended I get tested for H. Pylori. I did and after blood and stool test I have it. So I was prescribed 2 capsules of Amoxicillin 500g twice daily and one 500mg tablet of Clarithromyc. I was already on Omeprazole for stomach acid reduction. Been taking meds for like 2 days now. My guess is this bacteria has led to possible gastritis as the symptoms of both the H. pylori and gastritis are similar.
Avatar m tn Ya know, I wish this title was overly dramatic but, it's really not. My life pretty much stopped 2 years ago this month. It started with symptoms of shortness of breath, palpitations & severe GERD out of nowhere following a course of amoxicillin for a sinus infection. This may or may not be a coincidence, I don't know. I went from being a super active, health conscience, happy person to being completely disabled and unable to work virtually, overnight.
Avatar f tn How was it determined that you still have H. pylori. Some tests can show the presence of antibodies to H. pylori in the system long after the H. pylori is long gone. Do a bit of reading on the different type of tests and find out if that could be the problem in your case.
Avatar f tn As of right now there are still times when I feel nauseous and my GI tract has never been the same, but I am not experiencing the severe every day nausea, headaches, burning abdominal pain, dizziness, and weight loss. Also, did any of you ever have chronic hiccuping with your H-pylori? I did, and I thought it was so weird. I learned in my microbiology class that I had to take for nursing that the bacteria produces CO2 which is why there is excessive burping and hiccuping, interesting huh?
1442483 tn?1284210716 had treated him for the most common cause H. Pylori, I went for a confusing drive down the information superhighway. A week later, and a B.S. in Armchair Medical Googleology, I've come to the conclusion my son is most likely receiving the wrong treatment, or there is false negative result in the biopsy. Last night he had a violent outbreak of hives, 1st time ever. Guessing the Amoxicillin? My question is... where do i go from here with this?
Avatar f tn t do it cause I have a 9 month old consists of 2 antibiotics either amoxicillin and erythromycin or tetracycline and flagyl .. and a proton pump inhibitor prilosec . I took it for 4 days and had horrible vomiting and diarrhea and stopped the treatment . now I am on prilosec which doesn't make it worse it blocks the acid in your stomach which h pylori thrives in acidic environments ..
