I went to UCLA today to speak with the surgeon that did my bowel reconstruction and stuff in 1999. He pretty much told me I had two choices as far as he was concerned:
#1 - Live with the pain #2 - Die
He said doing surgery on me for anything but a life threatening problem would be stupid and might kill me. My history is so complicated but I've had my share of surgeries. He wants me to get an upper and lower GI to rule out an obstuction. He thinks because of the pain I'm in and the symptoms I have (throwing up and not pooping) that I just might have an obstruction. He said if I do, then we'll talk about options but until then, I should just deal with it.
I mentioned the adhesion website, he rolled his eyes and said "I hate that website" I mentioned Germany and he said "All gynecologists think that taking down of adhesions is the answer for all abdominal pain" I could of killed him right then and there.
I am going to email Dr. K in Germany, tell him of my long and complicated life and see what he says.
Thanks to all who responded to my first post that I didn't get and I hope to hear from you all soon.
