Still have H Pylori...Surgery Rescheduled - X Post
Hi Danny,
Having had an h pylori infection post-RNY, this IS for the best!
I tested negative in all but one out of seven tests and that one small amount (found in the biopsy during my gastroscopy) was enough to put me in the hospital for 7 days, needing a blood transfusion, due to loss of blood resulting from gastric bleeding.
Plus the meds to combat the h pylori are killer on the stomach and even worse as a liquid form (or having to be crushed)...be glad they're doing the treatment now, while you are still able to take the pills!
