My blockage resolved without surgery! No NG tube, starting going to the bathroom. The surgeon said I could expect to have this happen more frequently, is this true?

It is true that once your gut has demonstrated a propensity to obstruct then it’s more likely to happen in the future than a gut which has never obstructed. That doesn’t mean you are guaranteed to obstruct again, or that you will necessarily obstruct frequently.

I’m *very* glad it cleared up on its own. I’d suggest being kind to your GI tract for a few days.
