Hi Shawn, That sounds like quite the ordeal, did they give you something for the ulcer and is there anything they can do to make your pouch opening any bigger now, I should think they can but I don't know? There are others here that have ulcers but I am not sure about the structure. Let us know how thing work our. Tom
 
Shawn-Hopefully your pouch pain will pass quickly and you can move forward. I'm sure you were given meds for your ulcer so things should improve from here. There have been a few people in this forum who have also had strictures so maybe some of them will see your post and offer some advice. Make sure you let us know how you are doing.
