Hi I was just curious if you can have low HCL but also gastritis. Last year i had an endoscopy and it said mild gastritis. But i really think i have low HCL. I always had GERD since i was a kid. and i have candida and many other issues like not absorbing food or digesting any food. i have severe bloating with anything i eat. it just seems like i would have low HCL but like i said i dont know if someone can have gastritis with that. or if thats only with high HCL. anyone know? thanks! :)
