Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the indirect result of many factors and some autoimmune diseases like scleroderma. GSE can cause inflammation and delayed gastric emptying, which can persist through most of the sleeping hours causing GERD. GSE is associated with an increase of food allergies - in some patients this can cause diarrhea ...
