Uh a number of causes - bacteria one of them which when they did not find when they did an upper GI and tested for and found none. My cause was listed below - I'm highly sensistive to NSAIDS which doctors told me i had to be on after going off blood thinners to dissolve a large blood clot. The irritation led to excess acid which ate at the esophageal valve and caused more issues.
"No single cause has been found for ulcers. However, it is now clear that an ulcer is the end result of an imbalance between digestive fluids in the stomach and duodenum. Ulcers can be caused by:
Infection with a type of bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)
Use of painkillers called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin, naproxen (Aleve, Anaprox, Naprosyn, and others), ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, Midol, and others), and many others available by prescription. Even safety-coated aspirin and aspirin in powered form can frequently cause ulcers.
Excess acid production from gastrinomas, tumors of the acid producing cells of the stomach that increases acid output (seen in Zollinger-Ellison "syndrome).
