I am fairly new to this message board, have been following it for a
about a month and a half now..I was checking out NYU's web site and NYU
School of Medicine and I ran into this fantactic article that was
recently published in NY Metro. I suffer daily with pain from adhesions
and am currently doing pain management. I feel like there may be hope
for us sooner than later now. "Cowboy Surgons" (open surgery) as they
are refered to should be outlawed and will no doubt be forced to update
their skills as more and more patients demand their surgeries be done
laprascopicaly,or they will find their once prosperous practices
dwindling.
Read this article. It has changed my approach. I will never undergo
another conventional surgery. I will most likely need another surgery
someday for another bowel obstruction. The last one was July 2000.
