Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): What's the Connection?

In today's blog post, we're going to discuss the connection between Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome (ZES) and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). ZES is a rare condition where tumors form in the pancreas or duodenum, causing excessive stomach acid production. This can lead to GERD, a more common condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation. The connection between these two conditions can be both confusing and concerning for patients experiencing symptoms. Stay tuned as we delve deeper into the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for ZES and GERD, helping you better understand the link between these gastrointestinal issues.
