@tjanet, thank you. I’ve gone back through this discussion because I wanted to make sure I was understanding what you’ve been trying to tell us.

You’ve shared that the Xifaxan helped the nausea but not the abdominal pain, and you’ve continued to come back to the imaging that reported “ileus or partial obstruction.” Along the way, members have asked what your doctors thought of the imaging, shared their own experiences with ileus, and suggested getting another GI opinion—which you said you were looking into.

What still seems unresolved is that you continue to have symptoms and see that finding on your imaging, while your GI does not consider it something that needs treatment.

I wonder if, in trying to help, we’ve been offering answers without quite getting to what you need from us.

What would you most like to see happen next? What are you hoping we might be able to help you with here?
