Redundant colon has dropped. What options for relief?

Posted by divadi @divadi, May 1, 2023

I am an 83 yr old active woman who has a reduntant colon and it has dropped down and pulled down more of my body. I have all the problems of redundant colon except vomiting. I eat small meals and can use advise about that ...My dr says Im too old for surgery and all the other Gastro doctors wont even call me back. it is very uncomfortable and wonder if I should consider surgery or if there is any other way to relief this discomfort.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Digestive Health Support Group.

I have a tortuous colon. and ibs. Since I had COVID it has been bad,feel like I’m being stabbed in the gut. Lasts for about half the day . Can’t get an appointment with my gastroenterologist until late May. Hope I can survive until then, GI problems are the worse! Hope you can find some answers for your problems. It’s terrible that doctors won’t even call you back.
