stricture episode -- positional symptom changes

I've been having regular episodes from my stricture where I'm in labor pain, vomitting, and have uncontrollable D about once a month. It's not a blockage (been there).

Anyway, I noticed last night that I can bear it as long as I'm curled tightly in a ball, but as soon as I stretch out my leg, sit up, stand, or stretch out my body in any way D and vomit were instant. Anyone experience this or have insight. I'm doing a CT this week to see if I have issues north of the stricture that we can't see. Curious why position could make such a difference.

I agree 100% with stripey on this. Because of all the surgeries I have had, I am full of adhesions, and laying on my right side can give me lots of problems. Of late, I will force myself to lay on that side, but I put the heating pad on my side and that helps some. Sometimes though after laying on that side, and turning back to my back or other side, I will feel really yucky too. Hugs!
