Please help my father, H.p still with him after stomach cancer surgery

[gracebunny0]

Dear all,

My father in China was diagnosed with H. pylori in 2019 and after several antibiotic treatments it still did not go away. In May 2022, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer (third stage), and he had surgery to remove about 2/3 of the stomach in July, 2022. He has been on the path for recovery after the surgery. However, the H.pylori still sticks with him!

In a recent gastroscopy check-up in June 2023, there still is inflammation caused by H.pylori. This time the doctor took some cells from his stomach and found out which antibiotics could work, and which ones were already met with resistance from H.pylori. My father is now taking antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor. However, I am deeply worried that the continued failure of curing H.p will cause the cancer to come back.

Could anyone please kindly offer some guidance on how to cure this? We are deeply heartbroken.
