Default Stricture

Alright, I've heard that once someone has a stricture it's possible that they have to fix it more than once. I'm totally fine with that. Question is, how long after the first time they fixed it, til it was needed to fix again. I had my endoscopy and fixin on Friday August 25, and starting to get a little worried again. So, curious. Thanks.
Heather

Heather: If you are experiencing the same exact symptoms, call your Dr. A stricture can re-occur, but it is usually fixed the first time. Sometimes though...repeats are necessary. If you are: Chewing well, taking small bites/swallows, and it's getting caught or stuck... Call your Dr. Remember, with a stricture you have the same problem getting liquids in as you do solids, though liquids seem easier. If there is any question in your head, just call. Simple.
