I am so thankful to have stumbled upon this site today. I'm not the only one to have this pain after surgery! I've had 3 abdominal surgeries in the past year. The last surgery was a total abdominal hysterectomy caused by invasive cervical adenocarcinoma. After my first surgery I started having some unexplained pain that has just gotten worse with each surgery. It's at an all time high right now. The CT scan didn't show anything and my doctor doesn't know what is causing my pain now. She mentioned briefly that "it could be adhesions" but said that she didn't want to do surgery because that would cause more. So what am I supposed to do? I'm 28 years old. Living the rest of my life in this much pain just isn't an option. I'm taking the max dose of naproxen and tylenol everyday with no relief. My doctor just wants to "wait and see" what happens. Easy for her to say!! She won't even give me anything for the pain. I also have Fibromyalgia and IBS...which is making it that much harder to diagnose the pain.
