General Surgery : Sorry you're not feeling well. If you have already done a Gastroenterology consultation and had a CT scan, colonoscopy then you may now need to see a General Surgeon if the pain is severe. A narrowing or structure in your intestines may need to be operatively explored with an exploratory laparoscopy. CT angiography or MRI may also be indicated. Stay calm, make Gastroenterology and Surgery consults
