What the eff?!?! I have it! Don't know how long but now I'm taking horse pills to get rid of it! Anyone else deal with this post op?

Good news is all my Vitamin levels are on point with an overload of B12. Guess I don't need B12 supplements anymore!

I found out I had it after my endoscopy! Crazy that it lived there all this time and no one ever figured out that it might be the culprit of my stomach issues! Just another good side effect from this journey! I will be rid of you soon, H-Pylori!

I have been battling gastritis...inflammation of the stomach. Lots of nausea, bloating, I found that many foods would cause me to have reflux. Stomach ulcers. Hopefully, the horse pills (2 different antibiotics and an acid reducer three times a day) will resolve all of this! I was just sleeved on May 8, so I am currently off of the pills, and will resume sometime after the 23rd.

I started getting nauseous about 4 months ago. I also got an iud around the same time so I thought that was the cause. Maybe it's due to the h. Pylori! I think I've had it for about 4 months. Thank goodness for the gallbladder attack or I may have not found it until something horrible happened!

I'm going to get back to tackling this nasty infection after my first post-op appointment (23rd), as I think I will be able to swallow capsules then. Good luck!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
