A recent blood test showed I had this, although I have had NO symptoms. Am now taking Metronidazole, Clarythromycin and Lansoprazole.

I have had a FOUL taste in my mouth constantly for the last 2 days.

ANyone else? Don't know if I could put up with it for a week.

I have, but I don't remember that side effect. I did feel as if some of the tablets were meant for horses, though - huge things! Best of luck for the rest of the week.

Do it (because you don't want a stomach ulcer)- but follow it up with a course of probiotics.
