Hi, Just an update on my treatment, I recently did a follow-up endoscopy to evaluate severe gastritis and intestinal metaplasia seen on my last endoscopy which I did 2 years ago. I had a course of antibiotic to eradicate h pylori infection 2 years ago after endoscopy which apparently was successful...

very suspicious. It is possible that PPI alone get rid of H. pylori. But the chance is very very low. Blood test should be very accurate in detecting exposure to H. pylori. Your body will have antibody against H. pylori for months or years. Given that your blood test is negative, I would assume you...

As said, histology is over 90% accurate. If you want, you can always get another type of test to double confirm. I really need your advice about this one. As I said, the histological evaluation after my biopsy has detected H.Pylori in low density. My doctor said there's no need for antibiotics, he ...

not sure about the cocoid form. histology is only examining a very very small part of your stomach. the good news is that endoscopy did not see any abnormality. So the chance of healing is high. maybe you need breath/stool test to confirm if you still have H. pylori. I know, but if histology in thi...

Do not know, it is in the biopsy report, plasma cells, lymphocytes and few eosinophils are present but no neutrophils detected, so it has zero activity score. Didn't took any PPI one month prior to endoscopy. Low density H.Pylori detected. Could this be the case with coccoid form or false positive? ...

I wonder how is it possible to have H.Pylori (even low density) and inactive chronic gastritis at the same time? Also, visual endoscopy and histological report didn't find any abnormalities.

the biopsy taken only represent a very small part of your stomach. So we dont know for sure how severe is your IM. H. pylori only colonise in healthy stomach. So it is normal to see little H. pylori in a biopsy sample that has IM. 30 years old is consider young. So dont worry too much about it. Hav...

I think most importantly is H. pylori detected. So your best strategy is to get rid of H. pylori. If you are young, got rid of H. pylori, and the intestinal metaplasia is mild, the intestinal metaplasia can be reversible. I'm 30 years old. Does info about intestinal metaplasia in less than 25% fove...

Hi, I got the biopsy report, but I have an appointment with my GI in two weeks. Could You please write if there is cause for concern because of the part where intestinal metaplasia is mentioned? Samples of antral gastric mucosa, preserved epithelium, foveolar cells twisted and elongated, lined with ...
