Dear Lisa There is nothing wrong with wanting to live a pain free Life, we all want that. You need to find a Dr that speciallizes in adhesions & the surgery that you will need. Are you on pain meds? If not, find a Dr that will help you with that for now. There are a few Drs that are experts. The problem is finding one. I went to Germany for surgery Nov 2000, but I am having pain again & can not afford to return. Going to Germany last time cost about 6500. for me. I also had surgery locally August 2001. And after 4 mths, started having pain again. I am 40, almost 41 I am too young to live this life of mine. Most days I feel 90. I also have tendonitis in my knees.I hope you can find a Dr to help you. Robin
