Hello,
Thanks for using HCM.
I am Dr Rakesh Sharma answering your query.
I can understand your concern.
If you have pain and\or tenderness in middle or lower abdomen then only chances of ulcer in intestine is possible.
If you have same type of complain it may be either stomach or duodenum.
Please consult your doctor for proper diagnosis as clinical exam is very important.
Yes you can have tophi,
You can take antacids for acid reflux.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
