H Pylori postive....left side stomach gut pain

The cure of Hp usually requires antibiotics. Other things have been tried and have a weaker effect.

its been 7 months since tripple therapy antibiotics dose...but i have a feeling that some of pylori bug still survived as some of my symptoms still present albeit less bothersome

i have to discuss the possibility of gut silent inflammation with Doc as it feels like it...also probably heartburn for a year caused some internal rash near the valve where esophagues meets stomach ( i feel burinng sensation near) that valve

what do you think Helico_expert about smoking aggrevating the burning sensation?
Does H Pylori levels increase with smoking?

Smoking is always known to be bad. But I am not too sure the effect of it to the inflammation in the stomach and the bacteria growth.

have you done endoscopy examination? are you taking any NSAIDs by any chance?

i read somewhere online that smoking increses ulcer pain but not necessarily makes them worse
i feel the pain 5 minutes in my tummy after smoking so i quit somking after this tummy prolems started

i am seeing two GI specialists in july for further treatment...probably will ask them to do endoscopy to get to root of the problem

yes if i believe my doctor pylori is gone as per stool test..but i still get loud long growling noises from tummy in morning
also the feeling of slight bloating/ silent inflamation and constantly moving pain in all areas of tummy
the intensity of pain has decreased after antibiotics but still there..


yes i was taking daily ibrufen and cold meds containnig paracetamol/acetaminophen for 6 months before this pylori thing showed up for arthritis
guess that gave pylori chance to grow indirectly

will my tummy ever be the same as before....


i am sick of constant thinking about this bothersome tummy pain..i cant work or sleep properly
:evil: :evil: :twisted: :twisted:

NSAIDs, such as Ibuprofen, contribute to 50% of the stomach ulcers in modern society. So, you may need to discuss with your specialist about it.

okay next time i see doctor i will mention about my ibuprofen use..i did not take it a lot...only for a few months before this problem started
little i knew so much problem coming my way from a OTC med

is there any meds i should ask doctor specifically to heal the mucosal lining damaged by pylori and ibuprofen??
any supplements to speed up mucosal lining healing??

another thing i noticed is if i eat certain foods the problem increases
the other day i had red meat, lentil soup and bread...and an hour after the meal i had this excruciating pain for 3-4 hours
a naturopath i talked to said to stop eating known acid producing foods

i guess when i have veggies or fruits the problem aint so bad

there is no regulation on what food you should avoid. But NSAIDs such as ibuprofen actually inhibit the mucous formation. Which leads to stomach acid digesting the stomach wall and leads to ulcer. You may ask your doctor to recommend something that protect your stomach while taking NSAIDs.

gluten grain redmeat starts the problem for 4-5 hours

one doc prescribed me sucralfate syrup a year ago for this

Usually the stomach cells will heal itself and given enough time, the mucous will come back. Meanwhile, you can take PPI or ranitidine to control the stomach acid. That will give the stomach cell a chance to grow back before the acid kills it.

indeed mental stress does affect your digestive system. I know a few HP negative people who pass a lot of gas and non stop burbing when they are nervous.

We also have volunteers who participated in our human trial, who got so stressed up, was admited to hospital. Then only he found out he was given a placebo.

So, positive thoughts are very important.
