sorry for the late respond. I am not sure if H. pylori is related to hair loss. It is common for children to carry H. pylori. But children are normally asymptomatic and because antibiotics could disturb the development of their microbiome, we dont normally recommend treatment for children. However, ...

Thank you for sharing your very interesting story. After all the extensive tests, I think you are negative of H. pylori. I am not sure why the stool test came back positive, but the stool has lots of bacteria, so it is possible that some closely related bacteria may cross react with the stool test. ...

I am sorry for the late response. Your post was somehow pushed to the bottom and I missed it. I am sorry to hear what happened. First of all, GI Map is not a good diagnosis of H. pylori.

GI Map seems to be very popular. But I am not trusting the HP result yet.

Do you suffer from gastric symptoms at the moment?
Do you have access to breath test?

First of all, congratulation in getting rid of H. pylori with ease.

Have you done a breath test or any other tests to confirm HP infection?
If yes, perhaps you can try the standard triple therapy + bismuth salt?

Sorry for the late response. I have been traveling at the moment.
Your endoscopy report looks ok. Did your doctor took some biopsies for histology for you?

What is your latest breath test result? Can you give the approximate dates of the breath test and the treatments you had previously?
