Reply to "Stabbing Pain!!!"

I can tell you that after my colectomy two years ago, but before takedown my testicles swelled everyday.

I went for an ultrasound of testicles and I had a hydrocele of the right testicle.  It took a number of weeks to resolve and I am still careful today not to aggravate it.

so pain/nerve damage would be fairly common after colectomy.  However,  I would think that they are not in your pelvis during takedown.

so am I thinking like Scott, that maybe you have an irritable pouch situation.  I suffer from that and take levsin to alleviate it. The pain is similar to IBS.

have they ruled out a UTI or prostatitis, which would cause pain similar to what you are experiencing?

have you spoken to your surgeon, who should still be caring for you for at least the next couple of months?
