What Is The Reason For Getting Halobacterium? Does It Eventually Go Away?
Hi my husband was diagnosed with halo bacteria approx 1 yr ago & took 2treatments of antibiotics,3 different packs of antibiotics for each treatment,it all cleared up but now felt sick in stomach again so did another test & came back positive! Can you tell us how you get this bacteria & does it eventually go away? Regards josie

Hi and thanks for the query,
The most important thing when analyzing results from this test should not be exclusively if it is positive or negative. The various degrees of positivity are important. It is also true that treatment failure could lead to persistent positive results. Kind regards
