If you write to me (olddad66@runestone.net), I may be able to help you find a doctor, who is knowledgeable about adhesions.

Adhesions after 14 years? Adhesion specialist in the San Francisco Bay Area? From: anonymous@medispecialty.com Tue Feb 4 16:59:58 2003
Help, I think I am suffering from adhesions. For the past year I have had increasing pain around an old appendix scar and trouble having bowel movements. I have undergone many tests all of which come back normal. I've seen so many doctors and everyone has a different opinion. I'm 31 years old and I had my appendix removed 14 years ago. It seems crazy to me that I have these adhesions because it was so long ago and yet once I read many of your postings I feel like I finally have some answers to my pain. I would love to hear if anyone has had luck with a doctor in the San Francisco Bay Area, as I am not finding anyone that seems to know much about adhesions.
Thank you
