Aquarium Water
Posted: Tue Aug 09, 2011 2:15 am
Hi everyone,
I am bit concerned as recently I was doing a partial water change on my new aquarium (I have never done it before since I just got it) and I ended up swallowing some of the water from the Siphon. The following day I woke up with burning in my stomach and upper abdomen along with burping that has not subsided for almost 3 days now. When I went to the doctor they told me I had gastritis. I asked about H. Pylori and they said it was not possible for me to have been infected. Do you agree?
I have never felt like this before and therefore I am assuming it was from drinking that water. Could H. Pylori live in a fish-only environment?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Angel
