Can chronic gastritis and irritable bowel syndrome cause weight loss???

Both conditions can cause weight loss. IBS is frequently associated with food allergies. Chronic gastritis is usually associated with food allergies and intolerance to hot,spicy food. Fortunately today, many medications are available to treat your symptoms. Check with your PCP for assistance.

Not typically seen as a complication of above conditions. Work up will be needed in order to rule out other, more frequent conditions that can cause weight loss.
