AskHello doctor. I have 2 stomach ulcers. After 7 months of treatment according to the hospital doctor's protocol, 2 times of endoscopy 5 months ago, there was only 1 ulcer left. On 12/12/2019 the 3rd endoscopy I had no more ulcers but only mucosal congestion in the antrum of the stomach, the doctor prescribed 2 drugs as before. All 3 times of endoscopy did not detect HP bacteria (negative). Now I only feel hot in my left abdomen after eating and I don't know why I keep losing weight continuously, before 58kg, now 55.5kg. So do I have cancer? Or the doctor gave me a medicine to treat weight loss. Thank you doctor.

Hello. Weight loss is a condition of many different diseases, so you need to see a doctor for advice on testing to find out the cause before using the drug.
