it's ok to take probiotic with omeprazole. Do update us how you feel with your probiotic treatment after quadruple therapy.

Hi, still having problems with my stomach, doctor retesting me for h pylori. My question is, my symptoms are not as bad as when i was first diagnosed back in august, so could the h pylori still be there even if my symptoms are not as bad. or would things not improve? ive had medication twice now, last one was about november, :?

the only way to tell is to get a follow up urea breath test. if it eradicated, all you need to do is wait for it's recovery. if it's not, you'll need to get a different set of antibiotics.

the recovery can take some time. Some ppl do develop IBS problem and diet change seems helpful. anyway, the good news is H. pylori is gone. :)
