Hi,
I want to post an update. I did indeed have a blockage. I got very sick in early July, extreme stomach cramps and vomiting and went to the ER. They did another CT scan and determined there was a blockage. My surgeon determined that I needed emergency surgery. After the surgery, I was informed that my anastomosis had a lot of scar tissue, hence the blockage. I just want to encourage everyone that if you think something is wrong, keep pressing the doctors. I had pains in my right side that felt like someone was kicking me there! It had to be the anastomosis, and indeed it was. I hope this can help someone. Blessings to you all.

I appreciate this update, Tina. Thank goodness you persisted. How was your recovery from the emergency surgery? How are you feeling now?
