Greetings of the day
I hope the surgeons in the hospital have ruled out intestinal obstruction by getting Erect X ray abdomen apart from CT scan. If it has not been done i suggest you to get it done and discuss the possibility of Subacute intestinal Obstruction or Electrolyte imbalance as the possible cause of your symptoms.
