Brief Answer:
Hello. There is a cure if it's an H pylori stomach infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello. She needs to be screened for an H pylori bacterial stomach infection since, if that's positive, it can be cured with a course of two different antibiotics.

If it's a GERD problem, medications like Nexium or Prilosec can relieve the symptoms, although they won't actually cure the condition.

Please let me know if you need any more information about this

Brief Answer:
That doesn't indicate an infection

Detailed Answer:
But it doesn't include the H pylori screen so that still needs to be done

Now after talking we had already conducted the H Pylori test
I talked to her and we went to the doctor here in Indonesia today ,that they have already done the Urea breath test. A urea breath test checks to see if you have H. pylori bacteria in your stomach. This test can show if you have an H. pylori infection. It can also be used to see if treatment has worked to get rid of H. pylori. and the results were negative

Ddo you want us toi conduct the test again ?

Hello Doctor, for the H pylori test should her fasting before do that or waiting 1 month before the test? Because right now she is on medication and antibiotic. Thank you.

Thank you so much dr XXXXXXX after she has dine the testing inwill inform you again.

Thank you so much for be kind enough to tal time and answer
