No one can offer any helpful feedback until we know size of hiatal hernia, what type of hiatal hernia, stomach involved and if so what portion, fat only, how large is the defect, any esophageal changes, was oral contrast involved and was any reflux on the study.
When you have that information please PM me and ill respond on this thread as helpful as possible to suggest next steps in managment.
This is interesting to me, because just recently I had to have an upper and lower scope done, and was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia, and according to my wife and subsequent follow up visits, they completely glazed over it and basically said they didn't want to do anything about it at that time.
This was following months of constant acid reflux and throwing up on a near daily basis. Tons of test and thousands and thousands of dollars later; I get diagnosed with the hiatal hernia, and they give me allergy meds thinking sinus drainage was causing my problems.
I have had a hiatal hernia since at least 2006. Most of the time I do nothing about it. About once a year the acid reflux causes a dry cough from a tickling sensation in the back of my throat. I treat this with Nexium for about a week and wait again until the next year. The doctors have been telling me for years, we don't need to do surgery right now.
You might want to see an ear, nose and throat doc, and go from there.
Why an ent?
Sorry I thought gastrointestinal person had to figure this out
