A member asked:
H. pylori igg testing - if once positive, are you always positive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Majority of people will lose their igg positivity after infection has been eradicated. This may take up to a year or more. However, some people will not and maybe never lose their igg and may need a different test to determine their h. Pylori status.
