Gastro issues?
Hey all. For context, I'm 32F and have been symptomatic since I was 18 and officially diagnosed in my early 20s. I've been well controlled for the most part, nothing major in the last several years.
I'm freshly postpartum from a preeclamptic delivery for twins and have been having some pretty intense gastrointestinal issues since. Significant weight loss in under 8 weeks (I'm down over 60 pounds since delivery), abdominal pain after eating and terrible heartburn turned out to be a lot of things on my endoscopy.
My pathology came back that I have Lymphocytic Esophagitis. It seems to be pretty unknown research wise but has ties to autoimmune disorders. I also have a hiatal hernia, class 4 valve dysfunction, and some significant banding in my esophagus and a Schatzki's Ring.
Does anyone have any diagnosed GI issues as well? Were they tied to your lupus or more coincidental?
