A member asked:
Got off omeprazole 3 weeks ago after h pylori infection eradication ive noticed weight loss of 4 to 5 lbs in 2 weeks is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
H Pylori infection can cause bloating, inflammation and other processes that can add hidden weight. After treatment, the body takes a few weeks to heal, and you may notice that you are not feeling so bloated, gassy, painful or that you lose a small amount of weight. If the weight loss continues, and you lose more than 10 pounds without trying to, consult your Dr.
