Covid or helicobacter pylori and lymphoid glands
Posted , 2 users are following.
I am sending to check if there is any one faced similar symptoms or know more than I do so that you can somehow guide me.
In the mid of 2019 I started having very cold hands before lunch time that I can't work. I went to do blood test and I was asked to take vitamins which didn't do any change.
Then In had the symptoms of corona in the 23 of march 2020,
- 1st day: Shivering, headache, diarrhea, couldn't eat
- 2nd day: sorethroat at mid day, couldn't eat
- 3rd day: started eating, sorethroat ended at mid day, blocked nose at night with lump in throat (solved the blocked nose with spray o.w I wouldn't breath)
- 4th day: same as 3rd day
I wasn't eligible for test so I had to stay only at home. After these 4 days and I started feeling progress, then I suddenly noticed
- breathing problems after lunch only.
- A lot of burping,
- dead skin around my nose
- needles feeling in my chest
- Frequent red itchy skin at the lymphoid gland area as well as red itchy skin on the esophagus area
- Can't talk a lot or shout as I feel sensitive in my throat
In June my esophagus was so inflamed that after touching the area of lymphoid gland, I had a fast heart beat and I went to do corona test which came negative. I went to the doctor who doubted that I have reflux and after trying Proton pump inhibitors for two weeks nothing changed and then he asked me to do a spectroscopy and we found nothing. Strangely that I found a friend of a friend that had the same symptoms but she even had blood coming from her throat. She did the spectroscopy and found that it was Helicobacter Pylori is the reason. My doctor simply told me, don't be scared because it seems to be a psychological problem.
I read online to see life habits to decrease the effect of reflux and what really made a difference was to avoid sitting in the bed before sleeping. That removed the most harsh symptom of breathing problems after lunch. Yet I went on with a lot of burping, daily dead skin around my nose and needles feeling in my chest and around every 3 weeks to have red itchy skin over lymphoid and esophagus.
Now that a year has passed and I am still having the same symptoms plus frequent numbness in the back of my feet and my feet nails is getting destroyed. I have read in a publication that Helicobacter pylori bacteria increases the ace 2 receptors which covid19 use as a host cell and another paper today that Helicobacter pylori is the reason behind lymphoid gland problems.
Does anyone facing the same problems or something similar, know any extra information that I might be missing or have advice?

wife has had a positive test in Jan 2021 and has been sufffering ever since. she has had all symptoms of long covid but not respiratory issues. From day 1 she had bad nausea and diaharrea. Gp constantly changed nausea drugs to no avail. All Gp consultations over the phone. When they decided to do blood tests after several weeks! it was noted that she had very high blood pressure 200+/95. she was given prescription for this but poorly followed up so got bp machine and checked and chased them regularly. After about 12 weeks and constant badgering Gp agreed to do a endesopy and ct. CT revealed blood clots in lungs even tho. SATS were ok - these are now being treated. Other test showed small hiatus hernia, inflamation and H. Pylori. Hospital at time said she would feel better after a week of treatment but after much discussion with GP who didn't take it seriously she was put on treatment. Stomach pain has since increased and she is worse now than before (nearly 6 weeks later.) Hospital is not interested in both clots and stomach and visit to A&E was a disaster. There is no help out there. The long covid clinics are virtual and don't seem to exist. So here she is into the 20th week still unable to do anything with severe stomach pain and all other covid symptoms. We have given up!! as there is no help. We believe Covid + H. Pylori is a deadly combination - we only wish there was some help. Don't think anyone is interested
