Three months ago I had a total abdominal hysterectomy, and have suffered
in severe pain ever since. Just two weeks ago my ob/gyn told me he sent
my CT scan to a different radiologist and she diagnosed it as my having
adhesions. O.K. now what? My ob/gyn told me that this would be my last
week of pain meds. Need to figure out a better way to deal with the
pain. Well, I just don't know how to deal with extreme pain. He has
referred me to a general surgeon. I am not optimistic about this,
because in reading all that I can about adhesions, it seems most general
surgeons don't understand them very well. Can anyone tell me what kind
of doctor I should see, or if anyone knows of a good surgeon who is
experienced in adhesions in the Baltimore, Maryland area. I don't think
I can live without the pain meds, which will stop next week (just
because, my doctor, thinks I need to find an alternative method then to
take them). I'd like to see him live with adhesions. Any HELP would
certainly be appreciated.
