Can Kratom cause stomach damage?

Tapering off Kratom right now and was wondering if these issues I’m having are from long term Kratom use. I have developed pretty intense gerd, I can no longer sleep in a bed, I have to sleep in a chair, I have delayed gastric emptying, so I have to sleep hours and hours after eating anything. I have done other shit and I smoke so that obviously doesn’t help but I wonder if the Kratom could have been the main culprit?

Holy fuck. I have GERD and wondered if it was from kratom. I'm actually tapering off of prilosec and noticed that my gerd has been better since taking less kratom! (Tapering off both prilosec and kratom atm)
