Hi, Im 25 years old and I am in treatment for h.pylori.  Ive been smoking during the treatment.  I thought it was ok but Im reading that smoking weed during the treatment of h.pylori is bad.  Ive been on the treatment for a week and Im supposed to be in the treatment for two weeks.  Should I stop smoking and start my treatment again as if it was day zero.
