Brief Answer:
Diarrhea is common side effect of sompraz kit.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Common side effects of sompraz kit are: nausea, drowsiness, stomach pain and diarrhea.
Diarrhea is mainly due to amoxicillin and clarithromycin. There is no need to stop the drugs because of side effects.
For treatment of diarrhea you can drink more water, eat more fiber, and increase intake of probiotics. Wash your hands well.

RUT positive test is because of H. pylori infection.

Risk factors for H. pylori infection are
(1) birth or residence in a developing country
(2) domestic crowding
(3) unsanitary living conditions
(4) unclean food or water
(5) exposure to gastric contents of an infected individual.

Hope this is helpful.

If I will not take this medicine , what is the consequence?

I am doubting the endoscopy test/report but I don't want again endoscopy .Is there any other way to test it again to confirm the RUT positive.

I am healthy and my immune system is also ok then why it catches me?

After finishing the medicine how to know problem is resolved. Is there any chances to have same problem, if yes then after how many months or years.

If you do not take anti H pylori therapy then symptoms of dyspepsia will not subside.
In small percentage of patient, disease will progress and lead to complication like gastrointestinal bleeding, perforation, gastric outlet obstruction.

Carbon 13 urea breath test
H pylori serology,
