General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Since you have not mentioned whether you were operated for small bowel obstruction or not, it is difficult to have proper judgement.
Your present symptoms are suggestive of acidity related problems including GERD, that may be secondary to intestinal obstruction.
The liquid, stringy and mucus in stool is indicative that you still have enterocolitis and I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Get the stool checked for three consecutive days.
Tests of blood for CBC, thyroid function tests, liver and kidney function and as advised.
Ultrasonography of the whole abdomen.
Upper GI Endoscopy.
CT scan of the abdomen with Enteroclysis to know whether intestinal obstruction is still there or not.
And Colonoscopy with biopsy.
All these tests along with clinical evaluation by a General Surgeon and Gastroenterologist will help you to get a proper diagnosis and proper management.
