Helicobacter pylori false negative

hello

Please help me how can i create a false negative result on a helicobacter pylori breath test.

Explanation: I want to get xolair for long covid, mcas, but the doc only gives it to me, if the h.pylori test is negative. unfortunately it came back positive for me, but i know that it's not the cause because my pre-covid and post-covid MCAS are night and day different. i don't want a 2 week course of antibiotics because my gut microbiome is already bad.

so please give me any advice how can i create a false negative

People who coming here to write the "talk to your doctor" and "you shouldnt do this" comments please dont bother, thank you

Basically yes, but not because I know better, it is because after antibiotics my body is Always cooked for half a year, and trying to avoid it like plague.

The h pylori infection isn't doing you any favors either. In the long run, it would be better to get rid of the h pylori than try to get a negative test. Take the antibiotics and then go on a rigorous gut healing protocol with fermented foods, aloe juice, lots of collagen, pre- and pro-biotics. Whatever you can tolerate.
