   After successful abdominal arterial graft I am still experiencing severe bowel disfunction. Four months have passed and although the legs are restored to full function the bowel is "damaged". I cope with anti spasmodic drugs and daily laxatives. The bowel seems unable to function on its own and the pain is continuous, but not severe.
