Have H. Pylori, Mild Gastritis. Full Stomach, Constipation, Gas, Heartburn. Medicine?

I was diagnosed h.pylori, chronic mild gastritis. Personally i do not have horrible symptoms. Just stomach feels full, discomfort, anxiety (anxious all the time but more often), constipation sometimes, lots of gas, very mild heartburn. I have been taking natural remedies and I have been feeling better. Lemon ginger tea with probiotics, raspberries, prenatal vitamins, vit c 500, iron pills, boost plus nutritional drinks to maintain weight, Oil of oregano, garlic root capsules, pepto bismol. If im feeling better could it be possible its working? I really dont wamt to take the antibiotics as it makes my gastritis worse among getting me sick with side effects plus I heard it could cause other problems. I have had bad anxiety but i may start taking my xanax so i dont irritate my stomach more.

Dear Friend..

H.pylori infection we contract though feco-oral route. I f you live in developing country you may contract it again and again.
If you don't have any horrible syptoms as you said and don't want to take antibiotics, its all right, not a big problem.

I am more concerned with your self-medication, i guess.
Why are you taking iron? are you anemic?

Do you know iron itself causes abdominal discomfort and constipation.

If you take a well- balanced diet then you don't need any mutivitamins, iron supplements and the whole stuff your taking, unless indicated.

Give your body chance to recover on itself, God has made our body in a way that it can manage things on its own, you don't need to supplement God's system.
Yes, if you have some medical problem, due to which God's system is failing, write to us in detail.
Will help you to get back to normal.

Stay Healthy
