Still looking for answers

I will write my story, as I am still trying to make sense of it.
Until November 2019 I barely had any health issues. I am 46 and fit. Sometimes I felt bloated but not a big deal.In November 2019 I got to Emergency with excruciating abdomen pain. I was having a small bowel obstruction. It got solved in 2-3 days with conservative methods, no surgery. No cause was found. I passed multiple tests, petscan, CT scan, endoscopy and colonoscopy. Nothing was found, except for Pylori. The doctor said this can't cause obstruction.
Since then nothing was the same. I have frequent episodes of pain and big bloating almost daily. The pain is mostly in the right, up or middle abdomen.
I started the quadrupple therapy but had breathing issues and stopped after 7 days. I will have my breath test in a month to see if I was lucky to eradicate it, but I don't believe so. The pain and bloating, after diminishing a bit after treatment, are now back. I will try other treatment probably.
My question, Expert, is: is there any possible connection between my small bowel obstruction in November, and H Pylori ?
Thank you!
