Experiences with

Duodenitis

I’ve been diagnosed with gastritis and duodenitis and a sliding oesophageal hiatus hernia. Currently taking Pantoprazole 2 x 40mg and Nizatidine. Short term relief but all my symptoms are back 🥲. Changed my diet, lost weight (mainly due to not being able to eat) and still the symptoms are there.

[i] I have been diagnosed with Raynauds,disease,Fibromyalgia,Osteoarthritis,Costochondritis,oesophegeal dysmotility,Dysphagia,Gastritis,duodenitis,diverticulitis,Lupus and have symptoms of Acromegaly,Pagets Disease of the Bone,and what I suspect is Lymphoma.I recenly had a "memory block" when leaving

I have a fair history of gastro problems too including GERD, Duodenitis & Laryngopharangeal reflux. My sister has scleroderma with Raynaud's but does not suffer the joint pain I do. She does have typical Raynauds presentation where her fingers go very white, and blue etc.

I do not have a major GI issue other than duodenitis, which is way down. And I take omeprazole for that. Before, I was given Flecainide as PiP for PACs, tried a few times, sometimes worked sometimes did not.

I’ve also been on Omeprazole for donkeys’ years and really can’t stop taking it because I had duodenitis badly years ago and still get acid indigestion sometimes, even with Omeprazole, so can’t see how I can stop taking it.

I’ve struggled to find a good community to post this in but hopefully some of you guys can help :) I had an gastroscopy today & they found a bunch of ulcers all around my digestive tract, gastritis & duodenitis. The issue is, I have no idea what could have caused it!

The consultant wrote "duodenitis caused by clopidogrel" on his summary of findings. However, since then doctors have declined to go down the route of trying alternatives to clopidogrel, and deny it being the cause. I'm not sure why the resistance to this diagnosis?

I had a chat with the gastroenterology where I had my endoscopy to tell them how bad I feel and what to take and they said oh is nothing serious there diagnosis was chronic duodenitis is just you know IBS nothing really serious.

I had an endoscopy in mid November and was found to have grade 4 easofagitis, severe gastritis and duodenitis, with several lesions in the latter two areas. My hh had grown to 5cm. I was also diagnosed with Celiac disease via biopsy, which came as a shock, as never had allergies in my life.

I’ve had Private CT scan, got diverticulitis and duodenitis. Been fobbed off by GP ,and not offered anything from hospital. I’m wondering if I should see a private Endocrinologist as I just want to feel well and be able to go out again. I’m putting results of last blood test. Thanks in advance 😊

I previously suffered from duodenitis when taking nsaids, and was diagnosed by gastroscope, which involved large doses of Lansoprazole, so I am now careful and just took a few Ibuprofen instead of upping the Pred.

I also have a hiatus hernia and duodenitis. Please feel feel to reply to this post if you'd like to chat further or share your experiences. Thanks, Romeo

Hi I've, like everyone else with PA, have intrinsic auto antibodies, I've also gastric reflux, a hiatus hernia and chronic gastritis/duodenitis (had more than one gastroscopy done which showed it).

Was diagnosed with duodenitis. Was put on protonix. In recent bloodwork my B12 level came back over 2000. I DO NOT take b12 supplements and do not receive injections. Any ideas what would cause such high levels? I am actually a member of this site because my daughter has pernicious anemia.

had this done today, they took 6 biopsies it showed so far hiatus hernia, duodenitis. And diticulitus are they all connected to my ckd stage 3

I have PA with severe digestive issues including chronic gastritis and duodenitis. The pain across my shoulders can be debilitating. Whilst I believe it to be due to the gastritis my GP wants it investigating. I have an MRI scheduled for my back.

I have just had a gastroscopy and have gastritis and duodenitis, they now want to do a colonoscopy because I have low trasnsferrin (10) and haemaglobin levels of 110 which is a bit below the normal so I am anaemic. Has anyone else been down this path?

(good news) however the fifth picture showed signs of Erosive duodenitis so needs empirical eradication. His diagnosis… Classic erosive duodenitis but nil else of real note.(that’s what it say’s) Apparently this could have been caused by the 2 years on steroids. Or a dietary issue, who knows.

He already had gastritis and duodenitis but they found the latter to be severe this time. He doesn’t see this doctor again until October. Last Monday he was up 7 times in the night and felt so poorly we made a private appointment with a GI consuktant for the following day.

For the last year or so I have been getting bad pains mainly around my navel when I go to bed.If I get up and sit at the computer etc they go away ( not distraction as if I focus they are not there )Ive had gastroscopy ( mild erosion and duodenitis), colonoscopy ( normal) and a CT scan ( normal).
