Hi
I've had H. Pylori for a couple of years & went through some of the antibiotic treatments (some of which were really awful). They didn't lower the count much.I tried a something I got in the healthfood store named Mastik gum. You take it for about a month or so. I think it is one or two capsules a day. Since I did that regime, my symptoms have improved tremendously. I don't need Zantac too often now. I haven't gotten another blood test because we don't have insurance right now, but I am quite sure it improved the problem quite a lot.
Hope it works for you.
