The recommended diagnosis test for H. pylori is breath/stool test.
you can do blood test, but that only tell you your previous exposure. Nevertheless, if you got a negative blood test, then you dont need breath/stool test. But if you got a positive blood test, then you should get breath/stool test to confirm the result.
