I have an ulcer and I have just finished my treatment of PPI after 10 days of antibiotics and 4 weeks of PPI but I'm still feeling a bit sick my ulcer is not totally healed so should I continue taking the PPI ?

if you have an ulcer, you probably can ask your specialist to organise another endoscopy to see the healing of ulcer.

But normally continue PPI will do the job. If you still feel the pain, perhaps you can also try another month of different PPI, eg. rabeprazole, pantoprazole, etc.
