Hi
Your test results are positive and hence you should continue with the medications.Full course of treatment should be taken to kill all the bacteria.Incomplete treatment can cause a carrier state which means you will not have any symptoms but will harbour the bacteria in your body and can also spread to others.
Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
