Hi,

Gastric ulcers do not present in the way your daughter is presenting. It may be a pre-existing condition in her.

I see that there is a problem of much more concern here.

It may be possible that she is either having a low or high functioning thyroid gland. Please get her thyroid profile checked which includes T3, T4, and TSH.

The management can be decided based on this.

In addition, she needs a routine blood count to be done and vitamin B12 assay without fail.

I hope this helps you.

Regards,
