I had my urea breath test a couple of days ago and got results today. It came back negative! I did have a small sip of water about 1 hour prior but not sure if that would distort any detection. Although it is a relief, my stomach does not seem back to normal. I still am burping and having minor stomach upset/pain as noted prior. There are days when it would be normal and many days its not. Any input on things to do next? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hy! I am due for a test in a week after finishing my treatment and couple of weeks of probiotics. Hope the tests turn out negative. I too burp alot and have developed back pain as well. Don’t have a clue why the back pain, never had it before. I take digene syrup for gas and bloating and it does relieve it for a bit. Its true that some days are good and I feel light and happy, but some days a gloomy and nights go without sleep. I used to have severe heartburn but that has thankfully gone. The meds do take a toll on the body.. hope you feel better!!

A sip of water is fine.

a bit of symptoms after treatment is fine. Most importantly is to know that you are now free of H. pylori. So your situation will gradually improve.
