I just learned about this from telling some friends who were treated for it some of the symptoms I am experiencing. I read that it is easily transmitted through saliva.
Im going to get tested tomorrow.
If I am positive, should I have my wife tested (has hbv) does anyone know negative side affects of this for people with HBV.
Hi Stef -
So it was confirmed that I indeed have H.Pylori with mild Chronic Active Gastritis. I'm on antibiotics now (Prevpac) on the 7th day of treatment today. So far the only thing that I may call side effect is constant hunger.
Also got my HBV results;
Glucose 76 65 -99 mg/dL
Bilirubin, Total 0.8 0.2-1.2 mg/dL
AST 26 10-40 U/L
ALT 32 9-60 U/L
Bilirubin, Direct 0.1 < = 0.2 mg/dL
Bilirubin, Indirect 0.7 0.2 - 1.2 mg/dL
WBC 4.5 3.8 - 10.8 Thous/mcL
RBC 5.11 4.20 - 5.80 Mill/mcL
Platelet Count 156 140 - 400 Thous/mcL
Vitamin D 65 30 - 1000 ng/mL
Vitamin B12 1624 200 - 1100 pg/mL
Let me know your thoughts
too long time ago i dont remeber exact time and drugs names, it was 2006
symptoms were acid in stomach, bitter taste in mouth
Thanks Stef.
What were some of the symptoms you had related to H Pylori? Based on what I've read it takes about 2 weeks to clear it. Why did it take 4 to 8 weeks for you? Did it come back after the 2 weeks? What were the antibiotics you used?
Were there any immediate side effects you experienced while taking the treatment?
i had it and cleared it in 4 or 8weeks by 2 antibiotics plus 1 proton pump hinibitor.these drugs can have a bad effect on liver damage/hbv
i posted also for another member natural extract active on it, vit d3 and alinia
Has anyone been testing positive for H.Pylori in addition to being diagnosed with HBV? If so, how did you go about treating it. I have recently taken the breath test and it came out positive, so to make sure since the breath test can emit false positive results, I got an endoscopy - a biopsy was done and sent to labs for testing. Waiting for the results now. I feel very strongly that I have it as some of my symptoms are as such;
Food Allergies - Yeast, sugars
Rash-like acne, which turns into very dark scars (Face and Scalp)
Hair loss
Low stomach acid( Food particles in stool)
Thrush (White -yellowish tongue coating)
Folliculitis - beard bumps
Fatigue
Brain Fog
Etc.
PLEASE HELP..
