My son was dx w/ h pylori 2 years ago not been well since. losing lots of weight scope showed gastroperisis could h pylori cause that or somethig else?

H pylori: H pylori is one of the causes of gastritis but should be easily eradicated with healing of the gastritis as well. Gastroparesis can be caused by diabetes and your son should be checked for that if he hasn't been already.If he is plagued by any stomach symptoms and is still losing weight, another gastroscospy as well as an abdominal ct scan may be in order. Medication for gastroparesis is available
