What Are The Symptoms Of H. Pylori Infection?
Several years ago I had h pylori and went thru antibiotics and pepto bismal treatment. I was told once I had it I couldn t have it again. I am having lots of problems that seem to be same symptoms. My doctor has ran many tests. My sedimentation rate keeps going up. The last one was 75. Do you think I should ask him to test for h pylori again. I have had breast cancer, am diabetic and have fibrmyalgia

Hi thanks for contacting HCM...
You had taken antibiotic for h.pylori ..
So it should be resolved with drug if correct drug given.
For it amoxycillin plus clarithromycine needed with omeprazole...
ESR is non specific ....
It raised in malignancy also.
You have breast cancer so also ESR can be raised.......
So treatment for breast cancer done....
Take care.
Hope your concern solved.
