Autoimmune Gastritis â Pernicious Anemia. The immune system makes antibodies and other proteins that fight off infection and keep the body healthy. In some disorders, the body mistakenly targets one of its own organs as a foreign protein or infection. It makes antibodies against it and can severely damage the organ.
Gastritis has multiple causes including drinking too much alcohol, prolonged use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or infection with a bacteria called Helicobacter pylori. Infection with a virus, fungus, or bacteria (other than Helicobacter pylori) can also cause gastritis. In addition, gastritis may develop after major surgery, traumatic injury, burns, radiation, or a severe illness. Certain diseases, such as pernicious anemia (an autoimmune disease) and chronic bile reflux, can also cause gastritis. Symptoms of Gastritis. The most common symptom of gastritis is abdominal upset or pain. Other symptoms are belching, abdominal bloating, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, and/or a feeling of fullness or of burning in the upper abdomen. Blood in your vomit or black stools may be a sign of bleeding in the stomach, as gastritis can promote ulcers to form.
