Lil buddy you are most probably eating outside food every now and then. Your long history for 7 years and help from metronidazole is highly suggesting h.pylori infection. I wonder pantop /omez didn't help with your problem Also how long have you been taking metro? 7 yrs? Isn't that too much. Metro is not wonder drug any antibiotic kills our good bacteria also.. have curd in meals or go for probiotics whatever you prefer .
Next Steps
just get h. pylori eradication empherical treatment and avoid outside food for atleast 6 months.. let's see if some progress is seen with that.

Hi. You mentioned as experiencing  stomach issues which is incomplete to understand what type of complaints you have other than the bloating sensation of abdomen.  The detailed history is required about your diet , lifestyle etc are important to understand what could be the reason for such issues. Just treating infection repeatedly with metronidazole will not help. It may cause adverse effects on vital organs.
Next Steps
you can consult thru practo or via WhatsApp to suggest after getting detailed history nine five nine one five four nine zero two nine.
Health Tips
Eat slowly, chew properly whatever you eat , avoid drinking fruit juices but you can eat fresh fruits. drink warm water.
