spasms after take down surgery

Hi!

Does anyone have anything good that works for those spasms that you get after take down surgery. I hate feeling the urge like I always have to go to the bathroom. Are these just do to the J pouch surgery itself, will they ever go away? I mean I want to get better and be able to go out on a date without having to run to the bathroom.

Anyone please help!

Thanks!

You can have your surgeon order you Bentyl, which is antispasmodic. But, you are right, spasms will reduce and eventually go away with time.

I have had a K-pouch for years. Recently I began having spasms every day. There is no pain, but they are very annoying. In my case, my surgeon says I could have a partial obstruction. So, I am going for a CT scan in a couple of days. Hopefully, we can find out what's causing these darned spasms!
