Dont be, honestly :)

I had the H Pylori virus, a quick blood test, 2 weeks of tablets,never had a problem with it afterwards in the last 18 years.

It's very easily treated so don't worry.

The breath test is very very simple and easy... If my memory is correct, you swallow one pill, drink some water... then wait a bit, drink some more water and then they make you breathe into this bag thing.

Nothing to worry over at all - I promise. x

Please don't worry. It is absolutely painless. If the result is positive then you need to take two lots of antibiotics for 1 - 2 weeks, it's as simple as that. I've tested positive and had the treatment and it's absolutely nothing to worry about.
