@kgrear thank you so much for the response. What a subject to talk about heh? I will try eating smaller meals but more often during the day. I take MiraLAX every other day to keep things moving-scary when they do a resection as you don’t want to take the chance of it ripping apart. These spasms do come out of nowhere-mine aren’t as bad as yours though. If I’m walking and I get a spasm, I just have to stop and wait for it to pass. Sitting is the only time it doesn’t hurt but I am so tired of sitting around and doing nothing.
Thanks again!

I hope your spasms will improve over time. I was having a smaller spasm in one section of my intestine. My Mayo Clinic doctor, Dr. Starr, said to make a mental note of it and to try to ignore it. He said that understandably, sometimes nerves get damaged during surgery. The good news is that this particular spasm went away. I hope yours might also lessen a lot over time. 😊
Our bodies go through so much with these surgeries and the cancer.
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. It is so helpful to share symptoms like this.
Take good care! 😊
