Just got back from having another endoscopy at TWH. Sure enough, my stricture had returned.

My first stricture was opened to 12 cm (I think he said cm anyway, I was kinda loopy after) and this time they opened it to 15. It's only been 13 days since I had the first once fixed. The surgeon said it is rare to get strictures this early out - lucky me!

I have another endoscopy scheduled for August 18th, unless of course symptoms return and then I will need to go in earlier. 

On the bright side the relief from having the stricture opened is immediate, the down side is I have to eat pudding and cottage cheese for a day or so :P

 He must have said 12mm ( millimeters )

Well, here's hoping that will be the last of the trouble.  Feel better
