I didn’t know that the GI tract went all the way up to the mouth. I need a doctor to see if I have any internal bleeding. I’ll have to consider getting a doctor to make sure that I can get a couple of medicines to make sure I don’t get bad heartburn.

Well, learn something new every day! I knew a lot of my medical conditions were related to my lupus. But it didn’t occur to me that my GERD was. Now I know! Thanks.

Thank you, this was a great article, I’ve been dealing with GI issues for 16 years, was diagnosed with Lupus 15 years ago, no Dr. ever made the connection that they go together, except, I always New it or suspected it, I’ve always been told by my Drs. That Lupus doesn’t effect the GI tract, so your article has helped me a lot, my food nor medications get absorbed anymore, I’ve lost 40 lbs in 7 months which for me is a lot of weight. But nobody’s concerned. . So I thank you for your article I wish I found it years ago. Now I can move forward with battling this diseases, it only gets better from here,
God Bless you

Thank you for this article! I have been battling my doctors and my GI tract along with Lupus/RA overlap and many other auto immune diseases. I have not yet been able to get my issues resolved (such as not absorbing some medications along with some of the issues in the article) but it is nice to see these articles and know I am not alone or crazy! <3
