I don't know the numbers of my original H. Pylori or my second UBT.
But yes I had Nexium HP 7 in March. 1 month after my treatment I did a follow up breath test.
I was simply told Positive or Negative over the phone (saves me doing a $150 visit) by the assisting nurse or whoever she was.
I was kind of getting better, by about 1% per day. But I was getting better..
I'm getting a booking with my GI asap and I will query him on the results of my H. Pylori numbers as he has them.
I have not yet done an endoscope. He prescribed me 2 months worth of PPIs yet he tells me if there are any issues after taking 1 months worth of PPI I should see him to get an endoscopy booked.
I thought I was getting better so I didn't bother. I am 1 month and and 1.5 weeks into my PPIs and then yesterday and today it flared up, I can barely eat or drink.
Nausea from having anything in my mouth.
Looks like I'm going to have an endoscopy. I just pray the queue isn't too long, from memory he said something like 2 weeks for public hospital wait.
I think the lump in my throat is caused by anxiety. However not sure if its the reason that my nausea exists, however it certainly makes my nausea more intense.
The strange thing is, I'm not stressed or anything. I'm so laid back yet my body responds with anxiety? Must be one of those mental things/responses that I can't control?
Either way, I got my hands on Diazapam and it doesn't cure my nausea, but at least I managed to drink some water without getting a shock/overly nauseated response.
