I'm sorry you don't have enough money to go right now for surgery. You should be aware that it takes two doctors to operate (I think). I'm almost sure (but not positive) that only one doctor would be insufficient, and they wouldn't put themselves in a position of not being prepared for all contingencies. As long as you can function and have bowel movements, you can delay surgery. I know that I'm not a doctor so don't listen to me, but its quite an ordeal. Some people get better, some don't. I also think that there are other good doctors out there. Do you have any insurance at all? If your adhesions are wrapped tightly around your intestines, that's a big problem. You'd know, because you wouldn't be able to "go". Prayers and love, Sally
