Looks like you were suffering from h pylori induced gastritis for which you were prescribed the h pylori kit which you took for 10 days we generally e prescribe these medications for a minimum of 14 days. It is possible that the initial treatment was not very effective resulting in persistence of the h pylori but the only way to confirm it is via redo endoscopy to look for resolution of the the gastritis please contact me once I would like to ask you a few more questions to refine the treatment
