Losing weight
I had a H Pylori infection in July. It was treated with three antibiotics for 14 days. The thing is I am losing 1 kg weight every month. Had abdominal ultrasound and it was perfectly normal.
Is losing weight after hpylori treatment common?
My thyroid profile is normal and also don't have diabetes.
Should I go for additional testing?

No weight loss after treating for h pylori infection is being observed,you need to go for further investigation like CECT whole abdomen and endoscopy if there is significant weight loss
