I had H. pylori for years and it was awful. My doc was useless and it took me doing my own research to tell him we needed to look for it. He said “that makes sense” and ordered the test which came back positive. He prescribed the triple therapy which eradicated it.
That doc was useless on that problem and again on COVID. He left the clinic not long ago.
I had it once also did the 3 step thing too took about a month to get rid of it
