Noninvasive test: It really is a simple test to check to see whether you have H.pylori. (a bacteria known to cause acid reflux, ulcers etc.). You will be asked to drink a liquid which contains urea. If you do have H.pylori in your gut , it will transform the urea to carbon dioxide which is then measured given a positive test. H. p can be eradicated with antibiotics. Do not stress yourself.. 1st thing. Be calm
