A:It appears that your doctor has diagnosed you to have a condition called Non- ulcer dyspepsia (NUD). Treatment for H. pylori consists of 10-14 day course of medications. If you did have an ulcer diagnosed by endoscopy, then it would be useful to get another test to determine if the treatment was successful in eradicating your infection with H. pylori. This is important because persistant infection is associated with recurrance of ulcer. On the other hand, if you did not have ulcer disease it is not important to check again for H. pylori, since its role in NUD has not been established. You should discuss these issues with your doctor in PGI.
