Lori all i can tell you what is working for me and it really depends on me also, being very careful not to lift etc.... The Dr. I am with put me on a combination pain medicine and artheritis med, because if you get the inflamation down it will help with the flare ups. I read alot of women are on Celebrex, others on Vioxx. I personally have alot of bowel spasms to the point I uninate constantly with flare ups etc... So my Dr. said she was going back to the Physics she learned in school, which was we needed a Artheritis med that worked on the smooth muscle, So I am taking Relafen. I have had less incodence with small bowel ileous, and it has helped the inflamation about 50%. I am also on Neurotin (antiseizure med ) they use for spasms also. Plus ditropan which also works on the smooth muscle, i have to be careful what I eat also. Now mind you we tried several various combonations before I got relief somewhat, I don't expect a miricle just want the pain to subside so I can function to sit up and it has been remarkable for me in that area. I still have to take it very easy until i make my decision on whether to go over seas or wait until some barrier is available in the U.S. For now i feel my Dr. is definatly on the right track and my pain has subsided from time to time with her efforts. Every person is an individual case but hopefully as you take in all that is working and not working for otheres, it will enable you to choose what is working for you hon. Good luck and I'd ask him to get you on an artheritis med until you get to pain management as it does definatly help also with the internal fatique. from adhesions.

And I'm not sure how long I have to wait for the pain management, he said I would get papers in the mail stating when my appt with them is.

Would love to hear the suggestions, fire away :-)
