All doctors will advise treatment if you have (or have had) an ulcer. Opinion is divided on whether to treat the infection in other situations. Indeed some doctors advise that it is best to treat every patient who has a positive test for Helicobacter pylori. It is best to discuss with your doctor whether treatment is likely to be right for you.
