A member asked:

Diagnosed w/ gastritis and blepharitis right around the same time. can gastritis lead to other inflammatory conditions in the body like blepharitis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: That would be highly unlikely. Blepharitis is a chronic condition that you have probably had for many years without even realizing it. I suspect the timing of the diagnosis was purely coincidental.
