A member asked:

Hello, i was diagnosed with h.pylori and the first treatment didnt work, and i finished my second treatment. i have bloatness and stomach pain 24/7 and feel terribly sick. is that a sign that my h.pylori is not cured?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

H Pylorii: No, but these could be side effects of a change in the normal colon bacteria due to the antibiotics used in treatment. There is also the possibility of die effects of the PPI class of drugs used in the treatment
