Kate I have been reading the message board with interest your's especially helped. I am writing about my son who has had adhesions for 8yrs now. He had an op when he was 6 and did not suffer any then it started when he was 11 and started growing. He suffers severe pain vomiting and bowel probs. He has been out and in hospital several times I was interested in the PCA machine you spoke of. We are in Scotland is it available here? I AM SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR PROBS ARE YOU WELL NOW?
