A member asked:
Will h.pylori antibodies show in bloodwork 10 yrs after it was 1st successfully treated with antibiotics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: but would expect the titer to be very low if present. A persistently elevated antibody level is strongly suggestive of treatment failure or re-infection.
