NYCVSGGirl87 24 Posted April 18, 2014 Congrats! I wish I could say the same. My insurance denied my claim because I needed to be tested for H. Pylori and I needed to get medical clearance for surgery from my primary doctor. I did the test for H. Pylori yesterday and I am waiting on the paperwork from my doctor.

walkingshammy 1 Posted April 18, 2014 Good luck diva, I got the pilloried test when they did my endoscopy. I think even if you test positive for h pylori you just take meds till it's clear then you can have surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
