@hhd, that sounds awful.

I don’t know if you are in a place to visit a GI at an academic health system but it may be a good next step for you since they are integrated with a medical school. You also may find a good one here, the top GI locations in the US: https://health.usnews.com/best-hospitals/rankings/gastroenterology-and-gi-surgery

Have you been able to connect with others about your Brunners Gland Hperplasia? I ran across this Mayo Clinic information you may find interesting: https://www.mayoclinicproceedings.org/article/S0025-6196(17)30638-9/fulltext
I eventually landed at Mayo Clinic GI for my own issues and am have made good progress. You can pursue an appointment with them here: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

Please post as you learn more, and hopefully get an enteroscopy scheduled. How are you feeling?

Thanks for the article!! My new GI Dr.'s office called today to ask why I called their phone on Thurs. Mind you it is now Tues. of the following week. I asked her if she read the report from the camera and she said "yes, it was inconclusive" I said "are you for real?" I said it showed multiple areas of bleeding" I said it has pics of areas that are flagged as bleeding! She said. " i see that now'! She said, "you have alot of pages in your file" She did not even look at my report until I told her about the findings!! I told my husband after I got off the phone, "She is going to kill me if she continues" Lordy, Lordy!
