I also had 18” of my colon removed 1 1/2 years ago. I wish I could say that there was a big improvement.

Deedee, It took me a long time to feel like I was as recovered as I was going to get. Mine was an emergency surgery and the ascending colon was taken out including the ileocecal valve which has caused chronic SIBO. I take Xifaxan on a daily basis. Have you been checked for SIBO? Many people with chronic constipation have it.
