HI ALL

TODAY HAS MEAN ALRIGHT FOR ME, I HAVE COPED WITH THE PAIN TODAY, AFTER POSTING MY EMAIL YESTERDAY I WENT TO MY GP, SHE IS VERY SUPPORTIVE WITH REGSRDS TO MY MEDICATION, SHE HAS ALLOWED ME MY OWN PETHEDINE BUT I HAVE ALWAYS TO GET HER OR A LOCUM TO INJECT ME WHEN I HAVE SEVERE PAIN, WHILE I WAS IN HOSPITAL I ONLY HAD A COUPLE OF INJECTIONS, I FEEL THAT NEW SLOW RELEASE TABLET IS HELPING ME.

THERE HAVE BEEN SOME COMMENTS ABOUT SURGERY, IN 1995 THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAD SURGERY, IT WAS DONE BY OPEN SURGERY NOT LAPASCOPIC, IT LASTED ME 5 YEARS TILL XMAS 2000, SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN HELL, THE PAIN SPECIALIST IN RPH CLASSED ME AS A CHRONIC PAIN SUFFERER.

WHEN I SEE MR PAGET IN NOV I FEEL HE WILL OPERATE AND GET ME OUT OF PAIN BECAUSE I FEEL THAT WITH LAPASCOPIC I WILL GET MAYBE PERMANENT RELIEF.

I HOPE YOU ARE ALL HAVING A GREAT DAY, ITS SCHOOL HOLIDAYS NEXT WEEK IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA, THE KIDS WILL BE HOME FOR 2 WEEKS.

REGARDS TO YOU ALL

PHIL IN PERTH AUSTRALIA

Dear Patty, I know I'm a month late, I've been really busy (we have an Inn) plus my computer has been being "bad". I want to welcome you to the adhesions board, and say hello. Most of us here are in various degrees of pain and you can read our stories on the adhesions quilt at the site ( http://www.adhesions.org ) It's a great place to do research. Look at some past e-mails, expecially from Helen Dynda.

There's so much to learn, I know its hard when you're in pain and agony, but you need to read up on your problems because eventually you need to know more than the doctors, who sometimes don't know much. Sad to say. Adhesions are the very devil for pain and problems, and they are hard to diagnose and fix.

Operations sometimes do more harm than good. Always try for laproscopic ones from the best doctors. Other people here can help you find a good doctor if that's what you need. Good luck and I hope you stay with us. With kindest regards, Sally Grigg
