Hi all, I'm having what I think are the symptoms of a stricture but would love some input.
I'm having trouble emptying my pouch despite probably too much pushing. I'm going more frequently than usual with out much result other than liquid coming out of me.
I'm also experiencing pain under my rib cage that is resonating through my body. This is the one that is giving me pause as I haven't seen much out there on this type of pain.
I'm still up and about, going to work, etc so it's not keeping me in bed.....yet.
Do these symptoms match what anyone else has had that has been diagnosed as a stricture?
Is there any hope of this being remedied absent dilation?
Do I need to go see my surgeon or GI immediately?
I plan on doing so anyway as I am in such great discomfort.
Thanks in advance for any and all thoughts.
-Brian
