Hi in 2021 l was diagnosed with 7cm wide hiatus hernia, ulcer. They did biopsy and said have Barretts Oesophagus. 

Since then has another Gastroscopy, no ulcer, still same size hernia but called it sliding. I asked about the Barretts Oesophagus, this was different consultant, same clinic. He says no Barretts Oesophagus. 

Can it go away.

  • Good morning Cazma

    I'm afraid that I don't know the answer to your question. It's understandable that having been told different things by different Consultants about your diagnosis that you may be feeling uncertain about things. 

    We do have some information about Barrett's Oesophagus on our website but if you want to chat with one o four nurses you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm. I'm sure they'll be happy to try and offer any information and support that they can. 

    Best wishes,
