I have a stricture at the top of the pouch where it is attached to the small intestine. It is troublesome. I have had several bowel obstructions due to the narrowing. I had it stented at Mayo about 2 years ago but I still can't say if it helped very much. The stent migrated after 6 months and I had to have another procedure under anesthesia to remove it. I had another blockage 6 weeks ago and there was talk that I get reimaged to see if I should be restented. I have decided to hold off for the present as I am doing well now. I'm told the stents are getting better and better all the time and the docs are getting better at placing them. �� Keep me posted on what you decide to do.  Savannah
