I am 14 months post left hemicolectomy for stage 2 bowel cancer Around 2 months ago I had my ct scan and bloods which came back clear but I am suffering from what I can only describe as trapped wind in my left side. I’m just wondering if this it quite common, I am still waiting for my yearly colonoscopy
