post-scope issues

Hi everyone! I've been doing well recently, but my GI wanted to a flex sigmoid so he could see if I still had some inflammation and to dilate my anal stricture. Good news -- almost no inflammation.

Bad (?) news -- I've hardly been able to go to the bathroom this past week...has this happened to anyone else following a procedure? I had the scope done a week ago today and have barely been passing any stool. I'm not in any pain or anything, and have been eating and taking my meds as normal. I feel like I need to go to the bathroom but when I go, hardly anything happens. Only thing changed recently is that I stopped Asacol after the scope.

Thanks!

My GI told me I didn't need to take it anymore.

Asacol was not my only medication. I still take 6mp daily and humira weekly. The asacol made me extremely ubcomfortable, it hurt to pass them through my stricture since the shell wouldn't always dissolve. It basically caused blocks until I couldn't hold it anymore.
