I am 30 year old male with UC. Had bowel resecion 8 years ago. Last 2-3 years, had chronic diareah, cramps, pain, fatigue. Tests show no imflamation. Doc has not answers for me. I recently saw a surgeon for a second opinion, he theorizes that my symptoms are due to a narrow anastomosis, and next step should be surgery (bowel resection
or strictioplasty). My current doc does not agree. My question is, is it typical for a narrowing to cause symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation, cramps, and fatigue?
