Not related at all. H.Pylori is a bacteria that can cause ulcers in your upper stomach/intestine area if it is living in your stomach. Easily cured with antibiotics. Ulcerative Colitis is a chronic disease (currently thought to be an Auto Immune Disorder, as in your own body attacking itself) of the lower intestine and has no cure, only lifelong treatment.

ty for your reply, but i find that instead getting better after taking all those antibiotics i am getting worse, in the morning when i wake i find myself sweating not a lot, i eat very small dinner, and after eating very little my eyes starts to close i feel so sleepy and cold, i never had these symptoms before, also from diarrhea every day to constipation...
