Some of you know I have been having increasing nerve type pain near my anstamosis. The pain use to come around once every couple of months it was intense but was over just as fast as it came on.
The past few months though the frequency and legth of pain has increased. I can only describe it like someone taking a pair of needle nose pliers that are red hot pinching the area and twisting them on the painful area...hey docs always ask for a description. The past week or so I have noticed one more thing. I have sutures that due to not much body fat you can visably see the bumps (i am 98% sure they were disolvvable but who knows 4 surgeries within a yr time frame back in 07/08 I kind of ,ost track that and over 25 CTs...)
The suture area when rubbed just right brings a smiliar sensation at the site this area only began recently. It seems odd that it would affect me this far down the road my last surgery was jan 08) I can touch the area at times and no pain but other times WOW!!!
The external area isnt red as far as I can tell any ideas on the new area (I see my GI the 18th granted this is a diff one than who I was with while having all my severe issues since I moved 3k miles) Therefore my current doc doesnt have all the notes from my surgeon etc to know what types of sutures were used
