I just read your article about your grandson with Hpilori. Has he been helped properly and is he doing better. My boyfriend has the same and he is treating it naturally and doing wonderful. Let me know if he is better and if not I will onect you to someone that can help. Blessings, Laura
I hear you girl, I have the same pains you are describing and I have it since I was your age, I am now 35 and they still don't know what it is. They found the H-pylori couple years ago and treated me twice or three times for this bacteria, but the pain still comes back. It happens once in three months but it's not managable and there is nothing you can do. I also roll all over trying to find a position that will ease the pain a little, but can't find one and it hurts for couple hours. I went trough a lot of test, Endoscopy, Colonoscopy, Ultrasounds, Small intestine testing - AND Nothing! My doctor diagnosed me with IBS - which is more B...S.... I honestly think that it's stress related to the stomach becuse I usually get the pain after I get very stressed, not when I eat something, so I know it's not food. I am thinking of going to the doctor when the pain is happening becasue my stomach looks like I am 9 months pregnant-it's so bloated. I hope that you will find some cure to your pain.
My 11 year old grandson was diagnosed with the H-pilory about 4 months ago. He had bad stomach pain, diarhea, and vomiting.. at first the doctor thought it was a stomach virus that was going around... a month later he was sick again, Just like you, it would come and go.. the doctor finally gave a bloodtest and it was h-plory. two weeks on antibiotics and prilosec. He lost 10 pounds in 2 months. He is still taking the prilosec. But the doctor cannot bloodtest again for the pliory until this June . He said it would show up for sure if he tested now. My grandson seems to be doing ok. But had a spell a few weeks ago. I am very worried about this. They say that it is hard to get rid of and that it is contagious. AND there is not much known about the H-pilory bacteria. Doctor said that it is something that has just started showing up in people more than ever.. They don't really know what to do. If I were you , I believe I would go to another doctor. Get another bloodtest. I hope things get better for you. I know the pain is bad. My grandson was in misery at times. At this point, I doesn't seem to be having gas problems.. but, I too am worried about him taking the prilosac everyday. He also takes Strattera for ADD....... I worry so much about these drugs.. if you find out anything about your H-Pilory let me know. Thanks. Good luck to you.
It could be a nervous stomach. STRESS can make a lot of things happen. I would try another DR. most want to check things out even if you are young.
