Came back NEGATIVE YAY!!!
I tested positive 2 years ago and truly forgot that I even had gone through all that until someone mentioned it on here.
I am going to Mexico slf pay and was worried "what if I still had it?"
Went to my PCP and told her about my up coming surgery and she had me do a stool sample as a blood test even 2 years later can say positive.
She said they would not test for it in Mexico as pretty much every one there would have it..
I am just glad it was negative.
I wonder how many people have this and don't even know it...

Starting my 2 week pre-op diet today ..So ready to get on with this part of my life..
Have a great day everyone!!!

Hi Julie
What are the symptoms of this?
I was having terrible gas and bloating.
My doctor recommended probiotics.
I am feeling better taking them but symptoms have not
gone away altogether.
I'm scheduled for Nov. 22.
What are you having for your pre op diet.
Best of luck to you.

symptoms are stomach pain.. I went because Iwas taking alot of anti-inflamatories at the time and thought it might have caused a peptic ulcer. when tested I had H-pylori. Treated with 2 weeks of anti-biotics. And apparently they worked.
Pre-op is protien drinks, cream soups, broth, water, SF popscilces, Sf jello neither of which I am doing can't do SF anything. Propel etc... And then a dinner of chicken and a green veggie. Last 3 days clear liquids only..

I feel like I ate something about a week and a hal*****hat gave me the runs. I have been gasy
ever since.  I think it was this meat I ate.  Anyhow I am being tested for H-pylori too.
But when I do the stool test, I have tested negative when I really had it.

They are not only giving me the stool test, They are also giving me the 3 hour hydrogen breath test.
This is the only real test that checks the small intestine.  Even an upper GI  doesnt really get it.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY for you that your negative...
