Helicobacter Forums

delta of 6 is quite a strong positive.
so why do you think bismuth made it worse?
bismuth is a very effective treatment for H. pylori.
not only H. pylori cannot become resistant to bismuth, bismuth can also prevent complication from c. difficile, a pathogen that commonly cause serious diarrhea during heavy antibiotic treatment.

nevertheless, I think your treatment is quite mild. have your doctor discuss with you about your next treatment?

I think bismuth added to my therapy made it undetreatble, because it combined two lines and because in the second line metronidazol + tetracilcline, bismuth seems to be a surprise element.

I have an appointment for endoscopy with biopsy and culture. Hopefully they can find something to work.
I entered HelicoPTER clinical study in Munchen.
