hello fatjoe,
welcome to the forum. i have a larger stricture too. i try and convince myself its my best friend! i don't ever want any more surgery, so i know the pain. i tend to acknowledge it and 'feel' the pain and only take pain meds when absolutely necessary, like having to get out.
Good luck though, i hope its treatable rather than surgery.

HI Fatjoe, Welcome to the forum, Sorry about the stricture i know it must be difficult and all eating wise. Just stick to a low residue diet and smaller meals through out the day instead of having three big meals this should help with the stricture. i hope the medication works for and again nice to meet you. best wishes

Most times when Remicade fails,surgery is the only option, if the strictures are there and Remicade is not working, having surgery is the best option. It is not as bad as everyone thinks, yeah there is pain after but bliss for many years later. When do you see your doctor again? :welcome:
