What does it mean when they said i had moderately diffuse erythematous mucosa in my entire stomach?

It means the mucosal lining of the stomach was red (erythematous) in lots of areas (moderately diffuse.) It’s an observation, not a diagnosis. And it mostly means that there’s likely irritation and/or inflammation of the mucosal lining… could be related to the H. pylori, could be related to the treatment, could be related to NSAID use (Aspirin, Advil, etc.) or could be something else entirely.
