H pylori - #29256
I am in a bit of a panic right now and just need some advice about H pylori. Few weeks ago, I started feeling this weird discomfort in my stomach, kinda like a dull ache, ya know? At first, thought maybe I just had bad food or something, but then it kept getting worse, and I started having these crazy bloating issues. Searched online and ended up reading about H pylori being a possible cause. My doc did some tests, and guess what? They found H pylori! I am freaking out a little because I get really anxious about stomach stuff. They said I’d need a treatment plan, but I want to know more before jumping into anything. I mean, how common is H pylori really?? And what are the odds that this leads to something worse? I’ve heard mixed stories, like some people treat it and feel fine, but others have issues after. What am I supposed to expect with the treatment? Am I gonna feel even worse before it gets better? Can H pylori come back after treatment?? I'm trying to stay positive, but picking at my worries isn't helping. Is there anything specific I should do in the meantime while getting ready for my next appointment? Any advice or experiences on H pylori would help!
