Hi colleagues,
For the last month or so, I feel bloated after eating. No pain but abnormal.
The last time I ever felt like this was a year like a year ago. When I had H -Pylori. The H -Phulori was treated and cured. Did another test 3 weeks ago it is still negative. My primary care physician gave me some antibiotics but it has not helped after two weeks.
Any experience advice.
Hi Labu,
Not an expert by any chance but wanted to share what i know. I was having same bloating and feeling full issues. Doctor did test and it was h phylori only catch was it was slightly resistant to antibiotics since i had same case when i was 15 years old. He gave me different combination of antibiotics and pepto bismal to treat it and it worked.
Also it can be because of fat buildup so start eating healthy and avoid foods which causes a lot of gas buildup.
Change your diet and see if you see any differences. Even without hepatitis B, as we get older, even a day older, our body can change.
Thank you. I had the same h virus. It was treated like a year ago. Doctor tested this time and it is gone. But feeling fill is still there. Working on the diet.
Hello Doctor this is unrelated to the present discussion I was tested positive to H pylori Bacteria and the doctor has prescribed some antibiotics which Clarithomycin is one of it. Couldn’t really tell the Doctor of my Hep b condition since it’s a work hospital. So I’m asking here is it safe for my usage I would be using Clarithomycin 500mg twice daily along side Amoxicillin and omeprazole for 10 days is this treatment plan safe as I know that clarithomycin can be harmful to the liver.
Hi @essence,
I’ve moved this to a more appropriate thread. Perhaps some @PharmacyExperts or @HealthExperts can comment.

This is a medical question best directed towards the physicians in our Community.
Google says " Clarithromycin can also cause acute, clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice, which is estimated to occur in 3.8 per 100,000 prescriptions. The liver injury usually appears within the first 1 to 3 weeks after initiation of treatment and can arise after clarithromycin is stopped." This indicates that liver issues are rare but can occur, and that they take a week or so to start appearing. I don’t know how long your antibiotic prescription is for, but those are rarely more than a week or 2, so the probability is that you’ll be ok.
However, I am not a physician and cannot give medical advice–I can just interpret what information I can find. I recommend you remain vigilant for signs of acute hepatitis and contact your physician as soon as possible if symptoms appear.
Good luck!
