H. Pylori

I just finish some meds and have to retest in a week. What happen if retest positive and did the doctor prolong wls or still do the wls after the first retest?

And how do you stop from regain the h.pylori?

My understanding from talking to the nurse at Del Sol was that you had to test negative before they would do the surgery, I was also positive for H Pylori but it cleared up with the first round of treatment. As far as preventing it again I have no idea!

Hi JC,

I tested positive as well about the same time as you.  I did retest last Monday got the results and they were negative sent them to Del Sol Wed night and they called this morning with my surgery date.  It will be March 23rd.  Woo Hoo!   Becky did say that you must test negative before they will set a date and that most people need two rounds of meds to clear it up.  I hope that you have gotten rid of it.  When do you retest?

I retest this week. what restest did you do?

It was a stool test... yuck! 

me too.  This suck, but in long run we are doing it for what we need to save our life.!!!! 

I am so excited Becky called me back this afternoon to see if I would be willing to move up my date.... heck yeah I do!  So now it is in 3 weeks!  March 9th.  Ahhh... Now I freak out!

ME too, I call by call from Becky and my wls is on March 23. I could not sleep last night due that i was excited too.

Yay JC, I am so happy.. just think 2 weeks from today for me and 4 weeks from today for you! Woo hoo. I will keep you up on everything they do to me! Lol! If they dident change my date we would have been out there together! Good luck!

Quess what my WLS is on Wed the 10th now, so we are both going to be there the same time. LOL.
