Anal stricture

Hey guys,

   A little over a year since I got the all clear.  Things are going well except still having some issues with small bowel movements and just not getting it all out at once or twice.  Having to go several times a day.  I think this is probably because of an anal stricture that is present that can be felt during the digital exam.  I am having a colonoscopy next week where they will use a balloon to expand the stricture during the colonoscopy.  I am writing to find out if anyone else has had this procedure done and if it helped with bowel movements etc?

 

Thanks

    I am glad you are doing well, with the exception of the stricture.  I hope that your colonoscopy goes well, you get the all clear, and that the stricture can be opened up to give you some relief.  Please let us know how it goes.  Best wishes.
