Hello, I had colon resection for bowel obstruction and perforation 9 weeks ago. It took several weeks for the pain to go but in the last 10 days I have a sharp pain on the left lower side. I am also getting tired again and can't cope with much. I take Panadeine Forte but doesn't relieve the pain. I had an ultrasound a week ago but due to being on the phone for 2 hours to get through to my clinic for an appointment (vaccinations) for the results I am on here. It can't be urgent otherwise they would have rung me. I think like everyone else with the same problems there is no answer except acceptance. I am going to speak to my Naturopath sister for supplements.

Hi Doodily, welcome. I sorry to hear that you've had a new and sharp pain start recently after it seemed the surgical pain was on the mend. I hope you have heard about the results of your ultrasound in the meantime. Is there an explanation for the pain? What is your next step?
