Hi @hdd, I am so glad to see you comment on Mayo Clinic Connect!

I did a search for Brunners Gland hyperplasia and found three discussions: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/discussions/?search=Brunners%20Gland%20hyerplasia

Have you been able to talk to your provider about your bleeding?

Yes, I am supposed to have an enteroscopy, but I have to get rid of camera and get cleaned out! I was in the hospital in March with a hemoglobin of 6.9. Had blood and iron transfusions for 2 days.

Thanks for asking!!

Hi Janell, Back in March while I was in the hospital my new Hemotologist questioned why my Dr. (GI) who said after a colonoscopy, 1st he couldn't finish it, you have like varicose veins in my colon. He never did anything about it. He should have been concerned that he could not finish the colonoscopy I requested a new GI doc. That was in March and had to wait until July 10th to see a new doc. It was a NP who ordered the camera. I had to wait 4 months to see someone all the while knowing I was still bleeding.
Camera inserted Tues, received a call that night that showed multiple areas of bleeding. Now waiting to have a enteroscopy test, have to be knocked out so he can go in there.
There is no urgency with anyone!! Kills my soul.

The main goal now is to get rid of the camera!!
