PA now added heliobacter: gastroscopy needed???

[Ronja]

Hi, as written in my previous post I now have added heliobacter infection on top of pa / auto immune gastritis .

My gastroenterologist now wants to do an gastro endoscopy to check for ulcers before she prescribes medication for the heliobacter .

She said this is standard international procedure for heliobacter infections?

Any body have experience with this?

Don’t really feel like going under for this procedure again ( already and it 6 months ago for the auto immune gastritis !)
