Guest guest Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I have a small hiatal hernia. This was found before I was diagnosed with Achalasia. S -- Coughs, colds and hiatis hernias etc...? As a newbie here, I am wondering what happens when we get other illnesses like winter bugs etc. Are they usually harder to deal with or last longer? Are there other complications when coughing etc. Also wondering how a hiatus hernia is dealt with in a patient with A. Anyone else here have or had one of these too? ------------------------------------ As a member of this group, you are invited to join the HealthShare Groups community center located at http://healthsharegroups.org.
