It has recently been discovered that I have a bacteria called H-Pylori.Some people say that my symptoms (bloating, pain under the rib cage, constipation, gas, irregular bowel movements) may be caused by this bacteria.Other people say that H-Pylori does not have anything to do with IBS symptoms (it only causes ulcers).I am supposed to start a new antibiotic tretment to eliminate H-Pylori, but am afraid to start using antibiotics, for they may worsen IBS symptoms.Any thoughts regarding the conncetion IBS - H-Pylori?Thanks.
