Severe pain 1 yr after colon resection

I am at 11 months too. I did go through the Mutiple BM's a day for 5 mths. Then went to just the mornings unless I had too much to eat.
That is still the main side effect of my surgery (12 inches removed) I get full fast and still eat in small amounts.
I hear so much about scar tissue /adhesion after surgery and that it scares me!
Mine was supposed to be robotic and ended up being cut belly button down because of the scar tissue from diverticulitis
How long have you had this pain? I am reading about it now.

I felt better around month 4 however pain never really left. Had aCT at 10 weeks post op due to the pain not improving, nothing showed---give your self more time. Here I am with the continued burning, sometimes sharp or gripping pain. Mine was robotic/laprascopic. I too can only eat small portions, fill up fast, another vicious cycle. It makes sense that it's a nerve, however continued inconsistent bowel habits are exhausting.
