Hey guys its almost coming to that time.When i did my upper GI,My results came back positive,I'm on the prev-pack right now and I'm starting day four.I just wanted to know if anyone else tested positive for H-pylori.From the research that I've done there are some side affect,So for thank god and knocking on wood I've yet to experience any of that.So i wanted to know what was your experiences like if you had to do this treatment.I have another ten days to go an i'll be all done.For any of the ladies that have to do this just a quick tip i got from the nurses that i work with told me to drink lots of cranberry juice and eat lots of yougurt it helps to combat yeast infection.Thank like i said i've been lucky.I drank so much cranberry juice and ate so  much yogurt in the last four days that i should have stock in both companies.

I'm on a Everchanging journey.

Hi - when I had my endoscope done, they found an ulcer and H. Pylori, 14 days of 3 different antibiotics fixed it up - the only side effect I had was a horrible bitter taste in my mouth, which stopped the day after treatment finished. Otherwise, no problems, good luck!

I'm sorry that you're going through this.  Unfortunately, I too may be heading down the same road.

I had my endoscopy yesterday and the doctor said he saw some minor erosions.  He believes that they are due to my use of nsaids and put me on a course of Prevacid for 2 weeks.  The biopsies may show h. pylori, but I guess I will just need to go on antibiotics then.  The doctor did not see that this would put back my surgery (crossing fingers).

Hey Everchanging,

Being that you are in NY, where did you have your endoscopy done?  Because of my ins. I couldn't have it done at Mount Sinai but instead had it done in Beth Israel.

Hey girl hows it going. I just got done experiancing the same thing i was crushed when my 1st egd came back having the virus because it just postponed my date. But yes drink lots of cranberry juice and eat lots of yougurt. I didnt have any symptoms of yeast infection until my 12 day and poof out of know where it hit me. Girl i wanted to rip my vagina off lmao im laughing now but trust me i was crying that morning cuz i didnt know what the hell was going on lol. I called the dr office and they gave me these beautiful pink pills (3) i only needed to take one but she gave me three.I had alot of diariha and didnt feel very well taking all the antibiotics but i didnt care what ever i had to do to get rid of it to get my sleeve i did it .So if you feel any type of itch down there just call the dr asap Good luck to you
