Hi Tatty10 ,Thanks for posting and I'm so sorry to hear you are still having issues with your bowels post-surgery.

Do you think that the contrast enema has irritated your GI system?

Prior to the X-Ray, were your bowels improving over how they have been since having the resection?

What has the Doctor said about your GI system getting better?

Thinking of you
