You may have the H. Pylori infection again. The best thing to do is to go to a doctor again, and possibly get another prev pac. Don't play around with this. H. Pylori can lead to a gastrointestinal bleed that can be life threatening. I know the prev pacs are expensive, but you're going to need this if you have the H. Pylori infection again. Do it and get it over with, don't play around with your life. Best of luck to you.....

I think the treatment plan is supposed to be an intensive antibiotic therapy such as Biaxin for two weeks. I guess the "amoxillian" therapy will be the way you are going with the doctor. I am not sure that all of the diet options are needed because at this time. Your mom has been living a nightmare. But, the treatment for H-pylori infection has been around for humans for only about 25 years having laughed at the Australian doctor who made the discovery. The treatment has been effective in animal medical science for over half a century. At this point I am concerned that your mom needs the antibiotic therapy and emotional support from the family.

I also have h-pylori. It never goes away. The anti gent does. Keep taking the prev pak and maybe ask for for a mild pain killer, but be careful that may irritate also.

if an H pylori infection is probed, you have to take medication including lansoprazol (inhibits acid production) amoxicilin and claritromycin (antibiotics) depending on your country there maybe complete treatments on a pill (helicopack) and of course diet without a lot of condiments, gas, chili, don´t smoke and don´t drink alcohol (a lot)

You need to stay on medication for that. I use prilosec OTC. Use it til the pain goes away then use it every 2 weeks. If that does not work have your doc. write you a RX for the prilosec, it will be much stonger. I have had it for years. You have to watch your food intake and the types of food you eat.

limiting my refined sugar intake helped me. Also, try looking into Probiotics.
