Hi I havent had intercede used on me, but I did have intercede gel used on me in Germany. It and the surgeon reduced my adhesions by 50%. But, 4 months later I started having pain again. In August,2001, I had seprafilm used on me. The surgeon used 2 packages & wrapped my intestines & my bladder. Then 4 months later, I started having pain again. I am in the process of raising money to return to Germany so that the surgeon there can used the spray gel on me. I am not sure when I am going, but as soon as I raise the money, I am there. Mary Pomroy, from Canada is going to Germany April 6, where she will have the spray gel used on her. I hope this information helps. love robin
