Worried
Posted: Wed Feb 20, 2013 2:48 am
I was diagnosed with H. Pylori about a week ago. I had the usual stomach pains and intolerance to greasy foods. Im so glad to have been diagnosed with something because i was beginning to think i was mentally depressed because of all the possible symptoms of this bacteria.
What my main concern is I misread the label on the pill bottle, and with so many things going on I didnt notice until the second last day of treatment (this being only a week long course of medications, which also seems odd to me considering so many others are 14 days in length.) Instead of taking two of the pills twice daily i was only taking one pill twice daily. I do have an appointment with a doctor today but are there any suggestions or advice on what the best course of action is? Or have I just made a bigger mess out of this by possibly creating an antibiotic resistant strain inside my body?
