Dear Bonnie , was this your surgeon or primary Dr?? I would definatly
first make a call and ask him or her to explain themselves as to why and
then arm yourself immediatly with letter to new Dr found here on this
site, and hunt right now for more compasionate Dr as to adhesion pain.
Did they find alot of adhesions last surgery? What barrier did they use?
some of the secondary things that can go on after a surgery are:
Nueropothy(nerve damage or impingement) leg cramps, ileous (partial
blockage) full obstruction of bowel, kinking of bowels, digestion
problems, headaches always secondary,distention,infection etc... so hon
thats all I know to tell you and you are welcome to email me personally
if you'de like sincerely Shawna F
