Hogwash! The fact that H. Pilori bacteria causes stomach ulcers goes back to the 1940s when a veterinarian (sorry, I don't recall his name) made the discovery of the foreign bacteria when a pig farmer was on the verge of going broke because much of his herd had stomach ulcers. Ulcers in swine have since been treated with antibiotics. This is well known in livestock journals so it's funny how this info never got transposed as a possible cause for human ulcers.

SHAME ON YOU!
"Doctor" GEC knows all the answers.
How DARE you come up with, gulp, history that CONTRADICTS?
Bwahahaha!
One must assume that bacteria has caused most ulcers (but not all) for long before 1940. But I see your point ;) Discoveries are generally credited to the one that stood by their guns and made the discovery recognized. Many Europeans likely found the New World, but Columbus gets the credit because he made it irrefutable.
