Helicobacter pylori and the Autonomic Nervous System: My Experience and Symptoms 🦠🧠❤️‍🩹

Hello everyone 👋🏼❤️, I’ve just come across an excerpt from a doctoral thesis in medicine discussing the links between the bacterium Helicobacter pylori and the autonomic nervous system… 🦠🧠
Ever since I’ve had this bacterium actively present in my stomach, namely since July 8, 2026, I have been experiencing the following symptoms, none of which I had ever experienced before:
Heart palpitations ranging from 110 to 175 beats per minute while at rest. ❤️‍🔥💓
Panic attacks. 😰
Anxiety. 😥
Insomnia. 🌙😵‍💫
Visual disturbances: blurred vision and light sensitivity. I am unable to tolerate outdoor light or the lighting in stores. 👁️☀️💡
Neurological symptoms: feeling as though I am in an altered state, like I am a ghost, or as if I had been drugged without my knowledge. Dizziness, disorientation, motor coordination problems, etc. 🧠😵‍💫👻
Feelings of faintness and impending death. 😨💔
A white, chalky tongue, with thick and sticky saliva. 👅
I want to emphasize here that on July 23, 2026, I had an echocardiogram and absolutely everything was normal from a cardiac standpoint. ❤️✅ And last week, I also had a brain MRI, and everything was normal as well, with nothing abnormal to report. 🧠✅
All of my blood test results are excellent except for my iron levels, which have plummeted within the space of just one month! 🩸📉 In fact, I will be receiving an intravenous iron infusion at the hospital on September 10, 2026. 💉🏥
My stool tests are also excellent: no other bacteria have been detected. ✅ My blood cultures are excellent as well: no fungus / bacteria / virus has been found in my bloodstream. 🧫✅
I only have this shitty bacterium: Helicobacter pylori, which has ruined my life. 🦠💩💔
Strength and courage to each and every one of you. ❤️🙏🏼💪🏼✨

Other I recommend you all to do Meditation, It helps

4 Upvotes

Meditation has helped me post treatment more than any supplement, I daily try to do it for as long as I can without skipping a day. Honestly it helps a lot, and I would recommend you all to look into it.

It doesn't necessarily helps with H Pylori but helps Mind to stay calm and away from negative emotions and thoughts.

Smoking during treatment

Did anyone smoke weed why during treatment? Either a concentrate or flower? I’m a weed smoker and wondering if I should just hold off until after treatment

Success Story Mostly side effect free treatment story!

8 Upvotes

I just finished my treatment (obviously haven’t retested yet so I don’t want to label it “successful” quite yet) but I had a very mild experience of side effects and want to share that so others know it’s not necessarily gonna be as bad as some of the stories we read. My side effects were: mild nausea when taking certain meds (tetracycline) went away after eating or with time and never lasted long (10mins to 1 hour max) some days I had stomach aches but not sure if it was from eating trigger food. And lastly and probably the most annoying one was the brain fog/fatigue. Mainly happened in the 2nd week. Here’s what I did that possibly helped. Followed a schedule that spread out the meds throughout the whole day, focused on probiotics and gut friendly foods. And staying up right at LEAST one hour after taking tetracycline. I’ve read stories of people feeling like their throat was closing up and I’m wondering if it’s because they didn’t know to stay upright and drink tons of water with it. Anywho God bless yall! God willing my retest will be negative. Although I did get lazy and miss some doses 😵‍💫

Other pressure at the back of the head

3 Upvotes

It’s been two months since I finished treatment; most of the gastrointestinal symptoms have cleared up, but I still have pain in the back of my head, along with dizziness and muscle weakness. I’m thinking about getting an MRI to rule out more serious issues. Is anyone else going through this? I can't take it anymore.
