Scl, how would I know if I have a stricture. Should I ask my GI as I'm unaware of that.I would not recommend a vegan diet of you have evidence of stricture.
Strictures are usually diagnosed via Colonoscopy, MRE, CT. When I had my stricture if I ate too much or the wrong kind of fiber I was in horrendous pain(waves of pain), nausea, heartburn. If your GI has done any of the above tests you should ask him if they show any evidence of stricturing. Remember if you've only had a colonoscopy it won't tell you if you have strictures in your small intestine.Scl, how would I know if I have a stricture. Should I ask my GI as I'm unaware of that.

One would certainly hope.Yes I've done a Colonoscopy, Endoscopy, as well as an MRI. Would that mean if the GI hasn't told me I don't have a stricture?
Well so what are signs, and what tests show it?One would certainly hope.
