Dr found gastric varices in endoscopy but no advice given. can anyone say how i may have got these with no known liver problems 51f?

The varices develop much like the ones on the leg of women who have had babies. The pressure of the uterus slows blood flow through leg veins causing pressure & ballooning them. Any scarring or clot impeding the blood flow out of the stomach can create back pressure on these veins flow pattern causing them to bulge/balloon into varices. How this applies to you must be interpreted by your docs.
