It would appear as though I have H. pylori bacterial infection. I am on two different kinds of antibiotics and see my DR again in two weeks.

I just want to be able to keep some food down so I can go running again. At least I am getting some answers now.

Have a great day everyone !

I am glad that you went to the doctors and didn't let this get worse.  Take care of number one and that is you!

Jet,
Might want to add some yogurt to your diet to keep the yeasty bugs away! I had thrush after one dose of IV antibiotics in the fall; ouch! No wonder those babies cry, it really hurt.

Thanks Mary; I actually eat a lot of plain sugar-free yogurt. Every morning I have it with hemp hearts and blueberries. Great way to fuel up for the day!

Hopefully, you'll be back on the road again soon, now that you have a diagnosis and plan of care.

Hey Jet,

Are you also taking a proton pump inhibitor like Prilosec (several of them out there)?  Normal H. pylori treatment is 3-pronged, the 2 antibiotics and the Prilosec.  You also need the acid reducer to help the healing process.
