[QUOTE="FunkOdyssey, post: 267126, member: 44064"] This is a difficult question. There is such a thing as H. pylori negative gastritis and many other potential causes of gastritis. Alcohol and NSAIDs can cause gastritis. Bile reflux can cause it. There are allergic forms like eosinophilic gastritis where it could be caused by ingestion of things you're allergic to. Ingesting too much fluoride or any number of other caustic substances can cause it. High salt diets can cause it (this is one way they create gastritis in lab animals). On the other hand, H. pylori is still the most common cause of gastritis. There is alot of debate about the sensitivity of the standard tests and the accuracy of the GI-MAP. GI-MAP will certainly find alot of h. pylori that is missed on other tests. Diagnostic solutions explains that as a quantitative test, they are reporting any amount of H. pylori detected, even small amounts that are below the cutoff threshold of other stool tests. You will find people on Reddit say they are grateful they found h. pylori with the GI-MAP because every other test was negative, and now they treated it and they are better. You'll also find people claiming GI-MAP is reporting false positives. I am personally negative on standard breath and stool tests and positive with GI-MAP. I am going to be treating with a course of antibiotics soon and I'll let you know how that turns out for me. [/QUOTE]
