Hi guys, I am on day 8/14 of bismuth quad therapy. On day 4 I started experiencing dizziness, tinnitus, and my ears felt very clogged. This was accompanied by confusion. This has come and gone over the last few days, but my hearing is getting worse and so is the tinnitus.

I messaged my doctor and they told me it’s likely due to the pepto, and should be fully reversible (stop after treatment) and to continue with my treatment. Did anyone else experience this? I’m afraid my hearing won’t go back to normal even though my doctor has expressed it will.

2nd day of quad treatment and I have horrible diarrhea. Did this happen to anyone else?

Hi all, I have had horrible GI issues for years. Just found out I have H. Pylori. I haven’t started treatment yet because I want to make sure that I prep / care for my body as well as possible before, during, and after this rlly intense quad treatment. Any advice on what to eat, what to avoid, what supplements to buy, etc are welcome. I would prefer if peer reviewed sources could be cited. Thank you in advance!
