A member asked:

Can a person have h pylori and gastrinoma. would h pylori cause dr not to consider gastrinoma even if patient is high risk w/ pit tumor & family hist?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Easy call: I'm with you. A fasting serum gastrin is worth getting if the ulcers are bad and/or there's a history of tumors suggestive of multiple endocrine neoplasia type I -- glad you're well-informed about this. No reason you cannot have helicobacter as well.
