Hello J and welcome to the board....hope you are at least comfy today.. Just a question here...after your Hysterectomy..and oophrectomy..what were your subsequent surgeries for???? Right now pain management is my only saving grace...because i refuse to have any more surgery until i can get to Germany for surgery with spray gel...right now spray gel is our hope for ending this viscous cycle...og surgery only to end up with more adhesions..there fore more pain.. I am on the Duragesic patches...and lorcet for breakthrough pain..and it keeps me fairly comfy...most of the time..unless i overdo it or twist just wrong or something...then i hurt more than normal so getting more relief is hard... Hoping you find some answers to your pain very very soon.. Anything i can do to help you please feel free to ask..either here or my personal email is CookieTish@aol.com Hugs and Love... Tish
