Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

GAVE syndrome is quite rare. It is described as gastric bleeding, where the lining of the stomach bleeds and the reasons for this bleeding are usually unknown. However, people with GAVE sometimes have liver disease or auto-immune conditions. GAVE is often seen in elderly women.
Please see your doctor for more information.
