Re: Is there any research Re: H.pylori and late onset Midgut NETS?

OK, Neuro Endocrine Tumours of the G.I. tract are the issue here. Some genetic causes are known (MEN etc.) but usually the actual cause is not exactly known. They tend to be low grade malignancy so can be removed (if only one) but hard to cure if they spread. I have seen only a couple of cases in my...

Re: Negative at urea breath test

This reply is primarily to Abu Bakar Siddiquy but has general interest for anyone unclear about endoscopy findings. I created a brief summary below. Note that nothing is 100% true in medicine. Exceptions sometimes occur and can’t be explained. See the links in wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wi...

Re: Is gastropothy the same as gastritis?

Gastropathy (spelling corrected) means a vague abnormality not specific for anything. Perhaps increased spacing of cells (which would be oedema - swelling etc.) caused by any kind of chemical insult. Strong alcohol, or NSAID's medications could cause this. Also some white cells might be present in e...

Re: Any studies on management of H pylori in rare situation no antibiotic works to eradicate it?

I have seen a few patients like you over the years. I suggest try to suppress the Hp with something that it cannot become resistant to. I'm thinking of bismuth. This could be pepto-bismol 2 tabs 3 times daily for 1-2 weeks. With or without food doesn't seem to matter. If kidneys are normal then 2 we...

Re: PPI use and worse COVID-19 outcome, but H pylori and COVID says otherwise?

:shock: These are tricky questions and I cannot explain why the proton pump inhibitor would increase the risk of a severe outcome from COVID. Perhaps the virus is able to infect the gut rather heavily if the acid blockade is present. My suggestion is just try very hard not to catch Covid and then, i...

Re: Extremely low stomach acid

I can't add much to Helico Expert, the advice is good. Also, you seem to have a thorough GI specialist who is working on the problem. If Hp has been eradicated, low acidity is always accompanied by atrophy or extensive metaplasia of the upper half (acid secreting mucosa /corpus mucosa), and I doubt ...

Re: H-Pylori After treatment issues

These symptoms are suggestive of duodenitis which is inflammation just past the pylorus usually associated with high acid secretion and a residual inflammation after eradication of H.pylori. Need to snack is a symptom common in people with duodenal ulcer perhaps actually related to the sensitive muc...

Re: Question about pain and gastritis

Hi after a normal work up the main strategy for this kind of symptom is to exclude anything serious or easily treatable and then expect symptoms to gradually improve, especially in a young person. I don’t encourage the diagnosis of stress as a cause of organic disease because it is pretty much a “de...

Re: Low libido

Both drugs but more likely the second could temporarily affect erectile function and/or libido. It’s in the fine print. I suggest you cease acotiamide to see. You could also switch ranitidine to omeprazole 20mg once or twice daily. This is really a discussion for your family doctor. It sounds a bit ...
