When you guys were doing the antibiotics to treat your h-pylori, did any of you have stomach cramps? I hate to go into too much detail but itll cramp up and then not too long afterwards I'll have to use the bathroom. Anyone have any crazy side effects?

Yes, and also had bad matalic taste in mouth like sucking on a penny all the time. Not pleasant but must complete full regiment to make sure it works.

I just went through the antibiotic treatment and it is tough but I found if I took the pills exactly at the same time everyday and followed by a probiotic a couple hours later it was manageable. Unfortunately it doesn't help the taste though. Good luck

Thanks! I take two antibiotics and then a prilosec all at the same time every twelve hours. I hope I am taking them right

I had that bad penny taste too, but took a specific probiotic to prevent any other 'problems'.

Mine was successfully eradicated with no cramping & potty. I've never heard of needing to suffer through antibiotics.

I mean the pains not excruciating but ita almost like period cramps. Maybe just everything making its way thru the bowels and whatnot?

Wow! I was supposed to be on this antibiotic as well, but I my doctor called me and told me not to start it because my surgery is scheduled for August 1st which is next Monday. Looks like I dodged a bullet. When is your surgery????

They have yet to even give me a date! They want me to finish everything before they give me a date. I have five more days of these antibiotics.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
