Does anyone have short bowel syndrome?

@dboesten I had the exact thing done, and rue the day that I agreed to the removal of my ICV. I have had recurrent small bowel obstructions for 18 years due to radiation and surgery. The surgeon assured me that this last surgery in 2023 would fix my problem, as it was "wide open now". Things are worse than ever, have lost a ton of weight, gluten and lactose intolerant, and still have small bowel obstructions!

@kkmom I'm sorry you've had to go through this and still have problems. My husband had to postpone any potential resolutions to the daily watery diarrhea due to a rare cancer that required surgery. It will be a while before he goes thru more tests, etc. All the best to you.(Sorry if this is a duplicate reply). db
