I had a sigmoid colectomy six months ago, I have Hyperplastic Polposis Syndrome, a large number of polyps, one specifically golf ball size detected by a colonoscopy that had be removed surgically. Fortunately no cancer!I'm a 52 year old male and this was my first major surgery, had my tonsils out as a child. I had 7 inches of my sigmoid colon removed. I was given the impression that in 2-3 months I'd be "as good as new". I still get tired more easily, have abdominal pain, blood when I wipe sometimes, not constipated but not quite right also. I'm going in two weeks for a follow up colonoscopy which when I saw my surgeon last, he said should tell us if everythings ok or if theres adhesions forming ect....just curious if others have experienced similiar recoveries. I've heard from some that a year is really the time frame to be feeling 100% again.
