"likelyDiagnosis": "Probable uncomplicated H. pylori–associated duodenal ulcer",
"summary": "The key pattern is gnawing epigastric discomfort when fasting or at night with temporary relief from food or antacids. The interview found no evidence of active gastrointestinal bleeding or other alarm features. H. pylori infection is a leading cause, but it would require confirmatory testing.",

"Clarify whether dizziness is vertigo, presyncope, or disequilibrium and screen for neurologic and cardiac warning symptoms.",
"Ask directly about melena, hematemesis, syncope, weight loss, dysphagia, persistent vomiting, and sudden severe pain.",
"Review NSAID and aspirin exposure even when the history suggests H. pylori infection."
