Interesting to see this reply come in. I was in the hospital for a couple days 2 weeks ago due to an infection of the liver that was caused by a newly found stricture/scar tissue in one of the ducts leading into the liver. An abcess had started to form, so I went on some antibiotics pronto, and had an ERCP to clean out some "sludge". Fever is gone, but I am feeling really backed up and sore in that same small area where the stricture was found (via MRI). The MRI was ordered after bloodwork showed higher liver enzymes and sign of an infection with a high while cell count. Came on all of a sudden after a good spell of normal health/digestion. Can these strictures suddenly develop after a surgery like this? Getting some anxiety of course to think of going through another surgery to fix this after feeling like the worst was behind me. Really appreciate any insights here!
