Hi, that was one of my first tests back in 2020 with severe slow motility and my results were terrible. I didn’t pass one ring but how can you when your full of stool. It’s not like the rings perform a miracle and hop right over. I did the Smart Pill study and showed severe motility beginning in stomach which was very unexpected. I backed out of a total colectomy twice. I’m still having so many issues but for me weighing it out I would only deal with new issues so my colon still intact. I follow a very strict regimen of food, prescription meds and Philips milk of mag every other night. Being consistent for me has been key. I do have many times when I hit 11 days and nothing. I’ve simply adjusted and will keep my colon if I can. So so many folks live this life. It’s a choice. All the best to you.
