I am type 2 db taking tablets and insulin. On the 13th April 2018 after having an endoscope I was diagnosed with H pylori. This is a bacteria that lives in the lining of your stomach. It causes vomiting, wind, loose bowels. I was put on two different antibiotics and a reflux tablet. I have finished the tablets but I am still being sick and have no appetite. I am finding it hard to keep my sugar levels in check. Has any one else gone through a similar thing.
Hi, yeah, I had the anti biotic, but I did not have the vomiting. But I would projectile vomit if I had any dairy especially butter or cream. I have a high intolerance to dairy.
It's almost like I am allergic to dairy, but I'm not.
Could it be something similar?
Unfortunately, about the same time, I was having symptoms, which lead to a misdiagnosis of T2. Not to say that is happening to you, but those symptoms led to my eventual diagnosis of reactive hypoglycaemia. It can be caused by heliocobacter pylori, I have read this in a few papers. Indeed it is mentioned on Wikipedia on the RH page.
Since the antibiotics and the diagnosis of RH, my stomach which also had a hiatus hernia, has been great. I eat a very low carb diet, refraining from dairy, complex carbs, including wheat, starchy vegetables such as potatoes, oats, pasta, pastries and so on.
This has improved my health so much.
Your blood glucose levels are all over the place?
Well only diet can solve this, and after nearly two decades later, very low carb is the only way, I know, of controlling my condition, my diet, my health.
I would ask your GP, specialist (if you have one) to give you the tests.
What do you regularly eat? Do you keep a food diary?
What is your fasting levels (first thing before breakfast) or fasting Hba1c levels?
Hope this helps.
