H Pylori Infection?

I was diagnosed with having H pylori. I have recently had triple treatment therapy for it. I have read that 1/3 of the population has it and it doesn't seem to cause problems in most people. However I also know (the University of Maryland Med school has my blood and my families blood), that through the tests done that people with celiac disease are IgA deficiant. And I have also read that IgA creates a mucous that helps fight infections and bacteria- what H pylori is. H pylori lives in the mucous in the stomach so I wonder if it is fine in most people because they have the IgA capability of keeping it under control, but celiacs lack it. I could be jumping the gun here, it just seems to make sense. Anyway, just wanted to know if anyone had any other info. I am hoping that the treatments worked. If not I have to get an endoscope to check it out. Since staying gluten-free I don't have GI problems until this started bothering me. Now I am even more strict with diet than before. I won't risk the slightest contamination and am cutting way down on sugar. As it seems to upset my stomach anyway. My daughter got it from me I believe, unless it was the other way around. I guess it is caught from mouth to mouth or diaper changing. Who knows how we got it. My daughter has had the blood test done. She didn't show any raise in antibotis and her IgA was where it should be. Well, any other input whould be appreciated. Thanks!

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
