Most people with it have no symptoms, but it can cause gastritis, stomach or duodenal ulcers and increases the risk of stomach cancer. Possible signs are pain or burning in the upper abdomen, feeling full quickly, nausea, poor appetite and bloating. Consider testing if you have long-lasting digestive problems, have or had a peptic ulcer, or a close relative had stomach cancer.
