H-Pylori

[DrewzWife 65]

I just came from the emergency room with bad stomach pains and was told I have H-Pylori bacteria. My sleeve is scheduled for August 25th how will this effect it? I'm in tears because I came too far for this to happen.

[DrewzWife 65]

I know it's heart wrenching but you would rather have surgery set back week or so than have the infection getting into your blood stream. The doctors are doing all they can think of to

Protect us. Just remember he has your best interest at heart.

my surgeon noticed i had high levels of bacteria in my stomach (h-pylori) when he did my EGD. I am on a 14day antibiotic, my bacteria levels have to go back down to normal before we proceed before surgery.

[Mandala27 14]

Don't worry. You will be given a couple of antibiotics to take for two weeks prior to surgery.

You should be fine.

[laneydasilva 34]

No I have triple dose antibiotic 3 different kinds for 7 days then I have wait 30 days have breath test make sure it's gone b4 surgery as my doctor wants no complication during surgery so I have no choice ???? must wait

I'm in canada
