My doctor did an upper endoscopy on me a few months back. I was found to have the bacteria H. Pylori in my stomach. I was put on an antibiotics. (3 pills, twice a day) for two weeks. I had to wait 6 weeks after finishing the pills to do a new test (stool). It came back positive so I have to take a different antibiotic, (2 pills, four time a day) prior to the surgery (I was schedule for February 29th), now I have to wait until I finish the treatment, and check for the second test (4 weeks after finish the antibiotics) What if the second round doesn't work? Can I still do the surgery with a positive on the second test? Can I get denied the surgery if it's still there? What exactly does it do? I know a lot of people have it, but I just don't know much about it and how it can affect my surgery.
