I'm 29, Male. For the last 20 years, I've had these symptoms:
Shortness of breath (when exercising)
Sinuities
Bad breath
Chronic white tongue (tested not thrush)
Chronic dry lips
Chronic dry facial skin
Phelm in throat
Chronic cough
Chronic dry mouth
Chronic dry eyes
Becuase these are not your typical H Pylori symptoms, I don't know if H Pylori is the cause for them. Regardless, I want to keep track of them. I will update this once every 2 days or so.
Here's how I'm doing on day 3:
Shortness of breath (when exercising) - Almost disappeared! Today I walked up a hill that would always make me out of breath. I walked up today breathing without opening even my mouth!
Sinuities - No significant improvement yet
Bad breath - Disappared!
Chronic white tongue (tested not thrush) - Still not completely pink yet but seems to be better.
Chronic dry lips - No difference
Chronic dry facial skin - Much better. When I was on Doxycycline, it was not dry but it came back as soon as I stopped.
Phelm in throat - No difference
Chronic cough - Slightly better. No longer cough a lot when exercising.
Chronic dry mouth - Slightly better.
Chronic dry eyes - Disappeared. When I wake up in the morning, I don't have white stuff around my eyes. This was true when I was on Doxycycline as well but came back after I stopped.
I'm improving. I just hope my symptoms don't come back after antibiotics.
On a somewhat related note, when I was younger, both my parents suffered from stomach pain and issues. They might also be H Pylori positive.
