Problems months after colon resection surgery: What Helps?

Posted by joyce1 @joyce1, Feb 25, 2017

Three months after colon resection I had a severe stomach cramp this morning and have not had a bowel movement yet. This is the first time this has happened. So far things have been good.

I am terrified of hospitals after last year. Two hospitalizations and about 5 trips to the ER in the middle of the pandemic BUT I had no choice and it saved my life. I took good care of myself by wearing a mask ALL the time..... Even to sleep but it was worth it and I might not be 100% yet but I think I'm getting there slowly.

Troyhenn22! That's a Big DITO from out west! Not many things I can say I hate! But hospitals are one of them! But that doesn't mean they do not save lives and serve a purpose! I just hate them now! They used to be so different twenty years ago! We'll just leave it at that!

I am 5 months past hemicolectomy and still have some pain and discomfort at times. I think a trip to the ER is necessary and definitely a CAT scan to see what is going on. He probably has an infection and he probably needs antibiotics and pain medication. Try not to wait longer, I had a perforation back in August and it was a dangerous situation to be in.
