Hello everyone
I'm still here chugging along with my pain. It has been a dark few months. I've not had the will to do anything. I went through bupa and had an antigen test for H.pylori which was negative. Last week I had a ct scan and today I find out all was great except..... The consultant misread my h.pylori results and it is actually positive hence now the eradication therapy.
But why do I feel sceptical? I do hope this is what it is! I can't eat fruit with severe pain and very bad diarrhoea. I was able to eat all types of fruit but now within half an hour I'm vomiting and have loose stools and such bad pain. I almost feel like I'm about to pass out. Can h.pylori cause this? I can't even eat honey without the same effect. The other day I literally had a small bite of watermelon and off I went. It's scary when that happens as I feel so weak and so shakey.
I've got my antibiotics but I feel one week therapy is maybe not enough because of my weak immune system? It may take more to fight this. Anyone else with experience of helicobacter pylori?
I also had my first counselling session today. May I say how rubbish it was. I had 30 minutes! I spoke for 10 minutes and the rest just seemed rushed? I feel like I need to see a psychologist rather than a counsellor who is still in university finishing off her course.
Thank you
Kind regards
Jahida
