I'm sorry I can't help you with the wind problem. I also have a pain under my rib cage, and I think its adhesions. My last laproscopic was June 28th, 2001 and I though I would be pain free, but no go. It still hurts. Everyone says to give it more time, well, I have no choice, I have to give it all the time in the world, but there were two adhesions left over from thirty years ago that Dr. Reich took down and now they hurt. They had not hurt before. But nobody's perfect. I've waiting for intergel. What does everyone think about it (intergel) that had it?
Good luck and keep in touch. Even when you get better and have no more pain, we've missed you here on the board, so please come back. Love, Sally
