Approximately 6 weeks after completion of antibiotics I am still constipated, gassy and bloated. I'm having the retest soon to see if I have h pylori, but now I'm doubting that I ever really had it. (I tested positive via blood) Constipation and gas was and is my only symptom other than pain, which admittedly is gone after the antibiotics. Is it possible that H Pylori has given me IBS?

Re: IBS
The truth is, nobody knows exactly why and how people develop these post treatment problems. I suggest you do a follow up breath test to find out if you are still infected with H. Pylori.

Re: IBS
A blood test will tell you if you had H. pylori before. but that's not important. If you do a breath test, it'll tell you if you have H. pylori now.
