That is pretty shocking that your surgeon or primary didn't refer you to a GI after your surgery. It's a very hard surgery with some not so pleasant issues after. I'm sorry you suffered for so long. I am 62 and learned long ago to advocate for myself in health matters but didn't have the knowledge or bravery when I was young. So I commend you for taking control of things and finding a good doctor who will work with you. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks so much @tiss 🙂 I've been learning that lately too. I don't mean to bash my docs at all, because they've helped me a lot, but I'm still pretty surprised at the amount of research I've had to do and things I've had to figure out on my own. It's also helped so much having a supportive partner - he has helped me research so many things and has actually come up with more ideas than the doctors sometimes. Forums like this also help a lot 🙂 Thank goodness they exist! So much easier to network with people now than it was in the past and share stories/information.
