Can a stricture start out of the blue after 2 years with the j pouch and minimal problems? I recently had my first partial bowel obstruction that resolved on its own in 10 days on a liquid diet without hospitalization. Now, I am seeking to find the cause of this difficulty and exploring diet, the constipating effect of a pain killer I take for chronic neuropathy unrelated to gut issues, and the possibility that I have a stricture somewhere. Any thoughts about this would be appreciated. Maybe I am getting overly nervous......... given no real problems before??? Thank you to all on this site. I am a new participant.
