Does anyone have short bowel syndrome?

I continue to suffer all the time with constant upper left abdominal pain because of my short bowel syndrome condition/symptoms. My GI doctor isn't treating my short bowel syndrome symptoms so my symptoms are getting worse. My GI doctor doesn't seem to care that I suffer all the time with constant upper left abdominal pain. I don't sleep much at night because of abdominal pain.

@tj, I keep coming back to the wording you shared from your MR enterography—“ileus or partial obstruction”—and wondering about something.

Have you had a chance to ask your GI how they interpret that finding in the context of your short bowel anatomy, and what it means for the treatment they are recommending?
