Re: I have H Pylori
I am so glad I stumbled across your thread here. You are brave coming out and stating all of your pain here. I've been going through the exact same thing. I've worked hard to get to where I am and now my "odor" thing is wrecking my success and confidence. I sit in meetings that always end up with "poop" jokes and comments. But, why doesn't someone who cares about me just come out and tell me something??? This is affecting my social life because people are not inviting me to eat or to parties where they will have friends they want to influence. I have tried everything. I've bought all the products that claim to eliminate halitosis, I've changed to the high Alkaline diet, I've stopped coffee and diet sodas(which does have immediate effects), I've bought a sinus irrigator, I floss and scrub my tongue, I've tried natural products, and I've cut all meat from my diet. I use soy protein shake to get my daily protein.
But I don't want to live like this. I want to be able to eat just like the rest of the folks. Like I used to be able to do. After reading this, I made an appointment with my doctor to get tested for H Pylori. Also found this great website:
