Good luck with the surgery. I wish you all the very best. If your up to it please could you post how it was for you. I've had two different opinions from two different surgeons one saying I need it one saying no! I'm so confused. Take care stay well. Xxx

I had a balloon dilation done in February. It is performed during a colonoscopy and greatly improved the stricture. Ask your doctor about it!

I have the same issue... I understand the reluctance to do surgery to correct adhesions from another surgery but don't know what to do. Linzess & amitiza don't seem to help & that's all the keep prescribing. Trying to do "medical management" before they agree to surgery??!!
