Hi folks,

I got bored and decided to have a little fun. Enjoy!

YOU MIGHT BE AN ADHESION SUFFERER IF...

* You've memorized when your local pharmacy receives shipments of Senekot.

* You've been blacklisted by every gastroenterologist within a 50-mile radius.

* The ER staff knows you by name and keeps a locker for you.

* You have more heating pads than the entire neighborhood combined.

* You plan a party because you had two meals and hadn't been in pain all day.

* Your nightstand looks like a medicine cabinet.

* The speed dial on your telephone contains the numbers of your general physician, GI, OB/GYN, and four of your favorite surgeons.

* The phrase "They've got guts!" makes you think twice.

* You get frustrated because your medical dictionary doesn't have an entry for "adjuvant."

* You can recite all the anti-adhesion gels by heart, as well as their manufacters.

* Your idea of a dream vacation getaway is going sightseeing in beautiful Germany on your way to a world-renowned specialist.

* You're the first person friends and family approach when they need the correct spelling of "colonoscopy" or "laparotomy."
