@shellylynn123 - hi, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. From what I understand, jejunal Dieulafoy's lesion is quite rare.

Here is an article from four years back that gives a good summation, at the medical professional level, of this condition in Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports:

- Jejunal Dieulafoy’s Lesion: A Systematic Review of Evaluation, Diagnosis, and Management https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/2324709620987703

What level of bleeding have you experienced from this so far? Have you had it formally diagnosed? If so, how is it being treated?
