Could High BP, Bad Breath, Heavy Salivation And Sore Throat Mean E Coli Infection?
I have been suffering for over a year with high blood pressure, bad breath, heavy salivation, blood shot eyes, fatigue, and off and on sore throats. I have finally been able to get a doctor appt. but not until the end of this month. Can this be e coli or a staph infection?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thanks for your query.
Your symptoms are not suggestive of a staph or E.coli infection.
Though all the symptoms are not explainable on a single causative organism, the bad breath, heavy salivation, fatigue and sore throat may be due to an acid peptic disease for which H.Pylori can be a cause.
If you have further queries, I shall be happy to answer.
Take Care,
Dr Noble Zachariah
