H Pylori Treated - still have pain??

I was recently diagnosed and treated successfully for H Pylori. I just tested negative for the bacteria yesterday. I still have some upper stomach pain, weeks later. It’s better than it was but not great, comes and goes too. I have been off omeprazole for 2 weeks and finished the antibiotic regimen 4 weeks ago. I have only taken pepto once and Tums a few times which seems to help most. I have an appt on Monday to discuss everything. Bloodwork is all normal. Heartburn has gotten better. I’m able to eat again, I lost weight due to not having an appetite so I’m thrilled to at least be eating again. Has anyone had continuing pain or symptoms after h pylori treatment??
