By the way, H. Pylori infection can cause otherwise unexplained anemia. Typical symptoms are nausea and fullness after meal, burping after meals without having drunk soda, lack of appetite and weight loss, acid reflux that can lead to constant sore throat, weakness due to the anemia.

The best test to detect it is stool antigen or PCR test. The breath test at Dr's office is less sensitive than they claim it to be. In my case it didn't detect any H. Pylori, while the stool PCR and the antigen tests both detected it a few months later.
