I've had my test results back,duadeno ulcer,great relief, myself and my Doctor were expecting cancer.

She is putting me onto strong anti acid medicine, however she isn't able to put me on any antibiotic

because of my iffie ticker and drops for my only

eye.Does anyone on this site know if it's possible to get better without the antibiotic please.

    As long as your ulcer wasn't caused by H-Pylori. You probably don't need antibiotics if you were negative for H-Pylori. I have ulcers but they were caused by the H-Pylori bacteria. So I took antibiotics and a PPI for 14 days. That was 8 or 9 months ago. Got rid of the H-Pylori but still battling ulcers. Don't guess my stomach will ever be completely normal again.
