In the past I have had people ask a question on one site and answer it on the other, which is really confusing although that hasn't happened for a while.

Hi Iona, Thanks for putting your story in The Tree of Life Book on the UKAS website. The two most recent barriers that are available in the UK are still in trials in the States. They are Adept and SpraGel, I will send you articles and details on both. Adept appears to be the most popular. There is also another one called Adsurf which is nearing it's 3rd faze of completion, I can also send you the up to date info on it.
The reason I am answering this email on this IAS forum rather than on the UKAS group is that Dr Wiseman forwards all UK people to UKAS and this will save him the trouble.

Hello everyone. I am Iona and I live in the UK. I am 21 and am coming into my 7th year of suffering with adhesions. I've had 2 laps and I have adhesion twisted round my ovaries which have blocked the left one. I was initially told for 4 years I had irriable bowel syndrome following having my appendix removed, I had a lap which confirm massive adhesions, which they tried to remove but returned, I had anothr lap in November and had some removed, but yet again they are back. I am keen to avoid surgery for as long as is physically possible, I know it will be inevitable someday but I want to be able to have the barriers used but my surgeon is still researching them himself. With much love and appreciation. Iona xxx
