I had an appointment this morning with the surgeon, who has said because I have 2 strictures one ilium and one in the transverse colon I have to have that whole section removed. I’m so upset as I was hoping to have strictureplasty and wasn’t expecting that so much needs to be removed. I’ve had Crohn’s for 27 years and the only pain I get now is the strictures. Can anyone give me comfort that it’s all going to be okay! Is there any alternatives? Thank you
