Hey there! I’m new to this whole thing and I’m trying to figure it out. I had a gastrointestinal stromal tumor removed on march 4th, 2026 and the recovery has been very good so far but now I’m having bad stomach cramps. I know it’s not poop related as I’m going pretty regularly so I’m lost as far as symptoms go. Has anyone had these symptoms before and what do I do about it?
