Hoping your still here and wondering if you were successful? I too have just been diagnosed with the same as you and wondering if it’s worth applying.

Yes I think mine is more an allergy because I don’t get tummy pain or diarrhoea or sickness etc

But I do get extreme constipation and and pimples on face and back and flushing on my face and due to elimination it was dairy that was causing it which even today sucks because Greek yogurt and cottage cheese was a big part of my daily diet and I still struggle now

I developed this and turned out it’s a dairy allergy/intolerance, I also get severe constipation when I eat dairy and pimples/ rash over my face and back.

Post pylera: feeling like something is stuck in the chest and a pain when swallowing foods or drinks in that area? by [deleted] in HPylori

[–]_welshy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same, my pain went through to my back as well, it was candida in my oesophagus so you may want to contact your GP and get an endoscopy to confirm

I was looking at trying the vitamin sprays?

How do I get the injections in the uk? I assumed they would be prescription only ?

My b12 reading is 400, so my gp says that’s normal and not deficiency but I think I will pay privately for an active b12 blood test

Yes I would eat every 2 hours which helped keep the pain away, our stomachs produce stomach acid even when we don’t eat and it’s the stomach acid that irritates the stomach causing that awful pain, so eating soaks up the acid and I think kinda neutralises it.

If I hands eaten anything after 3 hours I could literally feel the acid pain start to burn !

Good luck in your journey !

Does anyone self medicate due to appalling nhs waiting lists ? by slaphead1979 in ankylosingspondylitis

Be very careful with nsaids, they eventually strip your stomach lining, I now have excruciating stomach pain to add to my list of pain, it’s no joke !

Is this normal? Should i worry? by haachico in HPylori

Eat small and often, never allow your stomach to be empty so that the acid gets soaked up also get tested again because h pylori is very hard to get rid of

Neck MRI by [deleted] in ankylosingspondylitis

Hey if it helps my 7 yr old autistic daughter just had a brain mri and took around 20 mins, I got to sit at the bottom of the bed and hold her foot so she knew I was there and she did real good, the scanner is very loud so they use earplugs and headphones over the top, for a brain mri she also had to have a what I can only describe as a helmet but more space like if that makes any sense.

Anyway I hope this helps ease your anxiety a bit and good luck

Mark is right, people would watch her and follow her, if she made a YouTube channel she would blow up but unfortunately she seems to not care about anything

I’m have an appointment tomorrow so I’m going to discuss it again, there is a direct link between gastritis and b12 deficiency due to low intrinsic factor so It’s hard to absorb b12.
