Hi , my 18 year old daughter has recently been diagnosed with collagenous gastritis after she had a severe bleeding and was rushed to the hospital and had transfusion and the ulcer was clipped. She had a similar episode about 2 years ago when she was 16 and was on somac for a year . I am keen to get any advice on teenagers or young adults who have experienced similar issues what treatment they are currently going through.

I am sorry to hear about your daughter and the issues she is experiencing with collagenous gastritis after she had a severe bleeding and was rushed to the hospital and had transfusion and the ulcer was clipped. I have had many gastrointestinal issues over the years that led to hospital stays and I know how alarming it can be.
