I’m now one year out from my resections, and there are times when I have pain. It always causes me anxiety, but I recently met with a new GI doc and he said that bloating, swelling and aches and pain is to be expected when you’ve had extensive surgery. Adhesions form and pull on things, etc. I try not to worry until the pain is consistent and really uncomfortable (I’ve had an anostkmatic leak, a bowel obstruction (adhesions caused ) and a perforation since my initial tumor removal and resection. Try not to worry but if it gets worse or you just can’t relax, call your surgeon
