surgicaldisaster

Well, aren't we two peas in a pod? Besides 4 other surgeries (all pelvic female related), I then had the "big bang" of 3 sugeries in 5 months, one of which was a hysterectomy. Guess what....I am stillin utter agony due to the adhesions.....the 3rd surgery was to remove...you guessed it..more adhesions after the hyst was supposed to "fix" me. It is a tough road and the more surgery with those buggers the worse it gets. No one will touch me with a ten foot pole unless I get a bowel obstruction(which I was told is pretty likely at some point) as they said I will only get worse than I am now. My suggestion is to take all your records and find a good PM dr. who can help you. I ended up on a long acting med. with a med for breakthrough pain and it has given me some semblance of me life back! I can actully get up and do things instead of laying on a heating pad all day crying and wishing I would not wake up. I was soooooo against going this route, but after trying everything(including accupuncture) I realised I had to do something as I have a family to take care of and a life to live. So, I went and am so glad I did. I am taking a base med and breakthrough med that took time to find the right mix for me, but is doing wonders. I wish you the best and if I can answer any questions at all, please ask. I am the queen of adhesions as well!!!! Talk with you soon.. Surgical Disaster BTW...if you have a surgeon that keep wanting to do surgery to take care of this..be wary, most surgeons I have seen since have said it will make it worse and believe me i have seen a LOT of them!!! (oh, and the pictures just a few months post op from my 2nd surgery even blew my gyn away...way too much scar tissue)
