Thanks for posting you query to health care magic.
first you have to tell me for what complaint you have undergone such test . As H. pylori causes gastrtitis ,so if you are suffering from such problem then you need to take treatment otherwise you should undergone gastroscopic examination and do gastric biopsy for H.pylori to confirm it . If you find the test positive you can take treatment .review me with your biopsy report and present complaint then I will suggest you curative treatment .
No need to worry as presence of only IgG do not indicate acute infection.
hope you are satisfied with my answer . feel free to communicate if any query .
regards,
