My daughter (age 4) has been complaining of stomach pains for about a
month.
My wife took her in to a doc, who did a blood test, and it came back
that
she has an abnormally high amount of H. pylori (helicobacter pylori)
bacteria (or more precisely, an abnormally high number of antibodies
to the
bacteria).  I have heard about this bacteria as being a cause of
ulcers.
The doc is calling this "gastritis," and naturally, is recommending a
bunch
of drugs, which we are not going to give her.

Any suggestions?
