My Acidity Symptoms started in June 2020. Initially tried to manage it with omeprazole 20mg per day
In Oct 2020 had endoscopy which showed H Pylori infection but no inflammation. Very strange

Feb 2022 - 3rd Stool Test for H Pylori was negative - no PPI for at least 14 days

July 2022 - Urea breath test for H Pylori was negative - no PPI for at least 14 days
17 Sep 2022 - Helicobacter antibody test was also negative.
29 Sep 22 - Did another endoscopy to double check as symptoms will not away (was on PPI). Histology report found Mild chronic gastritis associated with occasional helicobacter organism on the surface. Helicobacter gastritis diagnosed
October 2022. Completed 14 days triple therapy course of Amoxcilline 1g x2, Levofloxacin 500mg x2 and Dexilant 30mg x2 per day.
Main symptoms are pain (sometimes sharp very) in the epigastric area, fullness after eating a little, feeling something stuck in the throat and occasionally burning in the abdominal
So far symptoms not improved much.
How is it possible to still have helicobacter after all those negative tests in the last 2 years?
Has anyone had multiple treatments for h pylori and did you manage to get rid of it in the end?
How to heal Chronic gastritis?
what do people take for epigastric pain as buscopan or melverine do not seem to help as they are for lower abdominal
any other treatment tried for h pylori eradication?
