Hello,
My name is Maya and this my first time posting here. I am a 29 year old
mother of three and a wife. I had a full hysterectomy of febuary
14,2001 and have since suffered from adhesions. I have had three
Laperoscopies(sp) and still suffer in pain daily. since my husband is
in the US Navy I am stuck dealing with the military Doctors. In the
last few months I have been tossed from Gyn to Urology, to Gi and back
to Gyn. Today I was told by the Gyn doctor that adhesions do not cause
pain and that none of the doctors will even think about doing more
surgery. I have also seen the pain docs there and was told that before
they will even consider narcotic pain meds I have to try a series of
drugs which include drugs given to epiliptic patients to control sezures
and antidepersants. I am tied of hurting, tired of cring, and tired of
not being able to be the playful happy person I used to be. I was sent
for testing to see if I have remenants of ovaries left and will have to
follow up next week. However I don't get my hopes up anymore.
