Tongue problem

Ok this is my case...

My main problem is that I have something like tongue ulcers, white and dry tongue in the mornings. Like white lines most in the tip of my tongue, and they are worse in the mornings.

So I got a gastroscopy and was diagnosed with Pylori. They gave me Omez + amox + clarithromycin for 10 days...

So my "mouth problems" symptoms went away while I was taking clarithromycin for pylori but after I ended my treatment for they came back! Thats it.

I have had tongue cultures, and they are negative! Something like "normal tongue bacteria: High"

I´ve been having this problem for 10 months now... they get better or worse somedays and definitely they go away with clarithromycin, but I cannot take it forever.

Any opinion?

Sorry! Thank for your answer...

Yes. I went to two ENT doctors, they both said I did not have anything like thrush. They both said that I had gastroesophageal reflux and I had to see a Gastro.

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  Please be patient when asking a question because we are all just doing this in our spare time.  Have you seen an ENT doctor?  You might have oral thrush and I would recommend looking into this.
