very often, i read most all of the messages on the board. i almost feel i
don't belong because there are so many of you out there that suffer much
worse than i do. i have pain, but it is not as bad as it was before my
surgery in april to have adhesions removed. i feel so bad when i read about
all the suffering going on. i guess my worst problem is not being able to
use the bathroom. once a week is just not getting it, many time only with
the help of a laxative. I know my adhesions are back because the pain
(although not as severe) is the same. the question is will it get worse? i
am afraid that it might, but then again who knows. I don't even know if I
could live my whole life with the pain i have right now (i am only 33 years
old). I don't want to have to take pain medication all the time. will
there be a point where i say....THAT'S ENOUGH, NO MORE PAIN......then what
do i do?
Well, Karen, wait until you hear MY story on all of the above
