That is where adhesions are bad on the intestines too, they had pulled
the tranverse colon to the pelvic floor, and at the time I had my second
laparotomy five months apart, it was smothering the small bowel, and the
small bowel was interlooped with extensive adhesions. Ii get alot of
pain in the lower pelvis, and today I am struggling to go after senekot,
and a LARGE glass of prune juice. Then HOT coffee!
