Auto immune gastritis

Hi

I was wondering if anyone on here knows anything about auto immune gastritis. I read recently (can't remember where) that although quite rare (ish) incidence rates of gastritis are higher with people who have autoimmune thyroiditis. What are the symptoms and what (if any) is the treatment?

Many thanks

Jane

The above link will take you to earlier posts on the topic you have posted :-)

Sorry do not have any experience - however anything ending in 'itis '- indicates inflammation. Do you have PA ? B12D ?

Thanks for your reply and link. Sorry am not familiar with abbreviations. What do PA and b12d mean? Jane

Hi again. I have mentioned to Dr. He has referred me. He too thought it could be IBS. Jane
