Does Anemia Cause Gastritis - Pls Respond

Does anyone know if anemia causes Gastritis?  Another gastritis sufferer mentioned this to me.  I've had bouts of anemia off and on and its particularly worse when I have severe bouts with gastritis.  No doctor ever mentioned this as a possibility.



If I cured the anemia with iron supplements, would this cure the gastritis?  I'm feeling very tired right now so I wouldn't be surprised if I'm also anemic again.  The only issue is iron is irritating to the stomach and I sure don't need that now.
