Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per my clinical experience, the current symptoms are side effect of antibiotics given to cure the H. Pylori. I recommend to continue proton pump inhibitor, follow strict dietary measures to avoid all oil contents and be in regular follow up with your consultant for follow up endoscopy.

Hope I have answered your query.
