H. pylori is very difficult to become resistant to
1. Amoxicillin
2. Bismuth
3. Tetracycline
4. Furazolidone

As for Furazolidone, it's very rarely used. So we havent seen any report of resistance yet.

4) What is Bismuth? Why do none of the doctors mention this to me, or when i bring up just give a nod, but never prescribe it.
Bismuth is a heavy metal compound. Very good in killing H. pylori. It was banned for a while in Europe because of its side effect. People who takes Bismuth will have very dark color stool, which confused doctor for internal bleeding. In early days, doctors are unaware of it and sent people for unnecessary operation.
I beg pardon, if I am not right.. But to my knowledge bismuth was banned in Europe because of some people taking it in high doses and / or having kidney disorders developed encephalopathy due to this drug getting into central nervous system.. So, it is essential to not overdose and avoid taking it in case of renal problems..
By the way, I have created two video clips from movie where pepto bismol (or bismuth compound) were drank like water
