Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia. AIHA is a blood disease in which a person produces substances that cause their own body to destroy red blood cells, resulting in anemia. All blood cells are made in the bone marrow. This is the red, spongy part inside the bones. There are three basic types of blood cells: white blood cells which fight infection, platelets that prevent bleeding, and red blood cells which carry oxygen throughout the body in the form of hemoglobin. If the hemoglobin is low for any reason, the result is anemia.

Two of these types of disorders are peptic ulcers and hiatal hernias. Although both conditions have their own distinct causes and symptoms, they can result in anemia and establish new symptoms that practically mirror each other. The purpose of this article is to describe the conditions of peptic ulcers and hiatal hernias and how these conditions can cause symptoms of anemia.
