I pray this letter reaches someone out there that has bowel
obstructions. I don't know what web site to log onto to talk to people
with this problem...I need to just talk about this with someone who has
this problem, my problems started when I was diagnoised with Ulcerative
Colitis, I kept telling the doctor's over, and over, this is not the
disease, there is something else in there, and finally they went in, and
removed six lb's of scar tissue, on my right side of my abdomen, also
had to remove 3 ft. of my small bowels, after this surgery, the pain was
back with in two weeks, only to get worse than before...It's been over 6
years since the diagnoises of the disease, and 5 years since the
surgery, and like most others, the doctor's tell me the same thing,
there is nothing they can do for me, I even went to UCLA, per my
doctor's request, and was told the same thing...so today I'm finally
reaching out for help. I also see a Pain Management Doctor, which he put
me on morphine tabs daily, yes they help somewhat, but this pain never
leaves, ever. This is just some info on myself, I also take Chemo by
tabs daily for the Colitis, which is doing pretty good. but my problems
are with the bowel obstructions, which are caused by adhesions...My
e-mail is listed ofcouse, please respond only if you are suffering with
these horrid problems as I do..thank you for listening...have a great
day...and God Bless...Cindy
