HAD 5TH LAPAROSCOPY IN 3 YEARS LAST WEEK. THIS TIME TO GET RID OF ADHESIONS ON BOWEL. DR. SAID BOWEL WAS STUCK TO ABDOMINAL WALL AND VAGINA. I HAD A LAPAROSCOPIC HYSTERECTOMY WITH REMOVAL OF ONE OVARY LAST YEAR FOR ENDOMETRIOSIS.

CAN ANYONE GIVE ME ADVISE WHO HAS HAD BOWEL ADHESIONS TOO? I felt great the day after surgery, probably because I didn't have anything to eat for 24 hours! As soon as I started eating again the pain came back(left lower quadrant pain). Has this happened to anyone else? and will it go away? I am hoping this is temporary. I always felt better in the past after a laparoscopy.

thanks ama
