You will want to try contacting these docs, but be prepared! I bounced around from doctor to doctor for almost 3 years...many gastroenerologists, family docs, surgeons, gynocolgists, urologist...none of whom were educated about adhesions, and their associated pain and dysfunction. Everytime I was dismissed with a firm diagnosis of IBS, even though I was very sick...unable to eat, poop, with excruciating pain from adhesions, 4th stage endo and gall bladder disease.
I know there have been several from this site who have printed info from the archives on this site and taken it to their doctors. It is very important to have a copy of all of your medical records, and you may even need an advocate from this site to help you get proper medical care and medication as I did.
We will help you in your plight...you are not alone!
Love,
Janet
