This is my first visit to this website...it's great. I had an abdominal
hysterectomy in May 1999. I was opened up again in January of this year
because I was having so much pain on my left side. AFter using the
lapascopy for several hours, my OB/GYN doctor decided to open me up
because there were so many adhesions. I was pain free for about 6
weeks, now I'm right where I was again before they operated. My OB
doesn't know what to do with me now, so I've gone to several general
surgeons, only to be disappointed. The first surgeon told me to alter
my diet and the second one told me that adhesions don't cause pain and
sent me on my way. I live in the Kansas City, MO area and would love to
know of any doctor in that area that's familiar with adhesions. Any
suggestions? Thanks so much for any help. Jennifer
