My heart goes out to you, I just wish the doctors would be honest with us, if the surgeon wasn't going to write you the letter, she shouldn't have said she would in the first place. Like you, I've had 2 c-sections, one in Jan 1996, and the other in Dec 1997. I've also had an open ureter repair to my bladder(scar fom my belly button to my pubic bone) and a lap gallbladder removal. I don't suffer from pain every day, but I do have parital small bowel obstructions from adhesions, I get these every 2-3 weeks now.
I hope you can get some relief, Take Care
