drobeski 3,061 Posted March 8, 2017 Just thought I'd share my day with all of you. A colon stricture causes constipation. After a few days of not passing anything your body turns your digestive system liquid. So since 1 this morning I've been running to the can every 20 to 30 minutes with explosive diarrhea. I have lost over five pounds in the last twelve hours. You're welcome. gerbil? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NorthernVike 2,080 Posted March 8, 2017 What did the pathology show? Nothing yet. Two failed colonoscopy, barium stopped short and a CT scan that didn't show any mass. The stricture is there but they can't get into it to biopsy it. They are going to treat it as if it's cancerous to be on the safe side, that's why they are removing such a large section. The stricture is about 6 inches long. I've also given permission to go beyond the stricture colon if needed. If he finds something else that worries him, he can do what's needed.

Good news no mass or enlarged lymph nodes on CT. They usually do a frozen section at the time of the procedure for preliminary results, but final path may take a couple days. Good luck.

NorthernVike 2,080 Posted March 14, 2017 All and all things went well. No signs of cancer, just the worst case of diverticulitis my doctor has ever seen. So bad that it attached itself to my bladder. They had to cut me open more to remove it. They were able to reattach my colon without any leaks so no shitbag will be needed. Very thankful for that. Recovery will take a little longer with the larger incision. Thanks to all of you for the well wishes. As strange as it sounds, this place really is an extended family of sorts and helps us all through our day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
