Hi. You may do H. Pylori IgA test. All tests are equally sensitive but endoscopy and biopsy is gold standard...well not advisable during covid times. Blood test will still help. I saw your endoscopy report and I know the medical gastroenterologist who did it... Based on the report we can take it further...

Not advisable to do blood test. Stool antigen test is better. If your symptoms get better with medications for acidity you may not even require that.

Consult if needed.
