J.E. went to the emergency room at 2 a.m. complaining of nausea, vomiting blood, and severe pain in the middle of the chest. He told the doctor that he had been under a lot of stress in the past six months and suffered from heartburn at least 3-4 times per week. Blood tests were performed along with a gastroscopy exam (scoping of the esophagus and stomach). Results indicated that J.E. was slightly anemic and tested positive for H. Pylori bacteria in the stomach. He was admitted into the hospital for further observation and later discharged with appropriate diet orders and a prescription for an antacid and an antibiotic to treat the H. Pylori. What condition or disease do you think J.E. is suffering from
