Thank you!

Just out of my curiosity: Can you get re-infected from food (e.g meat)? Or does the infection occur if the food is washed with dirty water or handled with dirty hands - not the food itself? For example what is the risk to be re-infected if I eat in a restaurant?

Do you consider it a ...

Thank you for the reply!

I stopped the treatment on March 17, 6 weeks + 6 days before the test. It was also 15 days from my last dose of PPI (which I took for 3 days during NSAID use).

My stomach is much better now but I try to avoid certain food that can irritate the stomach (coffee, chocolate ...

Hello experts,

Just to let you and someone reading this post to know that my 13C-UBT game back as negative. So it seems that my triple therapy worked even though I had taken Ermycin which I needed to stop after two days. My treatment was: Amox 1g. x2, Chlaritomycin 500mg. x2 + PPI x2 ("standard ...

Hi,

So my test game back as negative. The cut-off value for negative result that this laboratory use is below 4. My result was 0,14. Does this stand for a "clear" negative as you see it? I asked from the lab and received an answer that this is a typical negative result. Do you agree?

Thank you!

Dear experts,

I just returned from the laboratory from my follow-up test. I was tested by using Diabact UBT-test kit: http://www.kibion.com/product-range/diabact/

I am worried because the nurse only gave me a half glass of water instead of full glass of water. I swallowed the tablet but since I ...

I am so scared that my UBT test will be positive... The pain has started again so it´s not a good sign. I also read that the "inactive" gastritis without h.pylori doesn´t mean a thing if the histology is done less than 4 weeks after the eradicatio and mine was done 3weeks + 1 day after finishing the ...

Dear experts,

As I still need to do the breath test (UBT) to confirm the eradication, I have a few questions:

1. Is 2 weeks off PPI mediacations enough to give the reliable result and has it been validated in any medical studies?

2. I was suffering from cold last week and needed to take ...

Thank you for the pep-talk! :)

Just out of curiosity:

If after 3 weeks of eradication therapy the histology (biopsies taken 3 weeks and one day after taking the last pills) shows no sigs of h.pylori and there is chronic but inactive (activity 0) inflammation in antrum and corpus, what are the ...

I think that the above message is spam again...

Just wanted your second opinion on this: I met a GI-specialist today and this doctor said that the resistance to Clarithromycin would be unlikely even though I needed to stop takin Erythromycin in 2009. He also said that since there was no H.pylori ...
