I have some questions about recovering from the residual effects of H. Pylori.
My history is found in an earlier post viewtopic.php?f=37&t=204840.
It was a very bad infection that I feel very lucky to have survived. Because of the severeity of the infection, I've had residual immune and digestive effects. Recovery seems super slow. It's been almost 2 years since eradicating H. Pylori and I'm still experiencing a lot of residual effects. Though I'm improving, it is going very slow. I can't help but ask the questions below.
1- How much recovery is expected from a patient in my condition?
2- How long does it take for a patient in my condition to regain some, most, or all their health back?
3- What are the chances of full recovery? Most recovery? Some recovery from where I'm already at?
4- What else can I do to help my body more fully recovery?
Things I am already doing:
*Currently I'm finishing up school -- I finish in March -- so I can take more time to really focus on my body and recovery. (I changed to part time 18 months ago because I just couldn't do school full-time in my condition.)
*I'm trying to make sure that I get on average 9-10 hours of sleep -- I've noticed that sleep really helps a lot.
*I'm followign my diet, though sometimes I find that I can sneak a little extra starch 2-3 times a week. (Like 1 piece of whole wheat bread that I make myself, or 1 cup mashed potatoes, or 1/2 cup cooked brown rice. Sneaking sucrose, trans fats, and maltose are out of the question -- can't sneak those yet. Sometimes I can sneak a little more lactose, but still pretty sensitive to it.)
*I'm taking a good vitamin B complex with lots of B9 and B12.
*I'm taking probiotics.
*I'm being very germaphobic in all my contact within and outside my house -- seriously! I take sanitizing wipes and wipe off my desk before even sitting down in class! And I don't allow sick people in my house, and I don't go into houses with sick people.
*Exercise: I was biking which felt great, but had to return to walking. I walk on average 1.5 - 3 miles a day.

Re: H. Pylori Recovery Questions
Hi Milla,
I must say your condition is very unique. I have no answer to how long you will recover to normal state. If you are definite of the H. pylori being eradicated, then your current condition may not be related to H. pylori. I would suggest you speak to your family doctor who understand your condition the most.
Once again, your condition is not very common. So my common knowledge in bacteriology is not going to help you.
