You can do another stool test for H. Pylori to see if it's eradicated. This is usually done at least 1 month after the last antibiotic pill, to give it time to proliferate and be detected by the test.


The fact you pain is gone for a month after antibiotics, suggests infectious origin. It may be H. Pylori or another bacteria killed by the antibiotics.


If your gastro doctors don't suggest anything, you may want to try a long course of Rifaximin. It is an anti-inflammatory antibiotic which kills intestinal bacteria selectively. It will reduce the inflammation pain, at least while taking it, and may rebalance the intestinal flora with less pathogenic bacteria.
