Subject: Does Neurontin promote adhesions
> Hi,

> I had a laporoscopy to remove an ovarian dermoid cyst which resulted in

> leg. I was nowhere close to being healed from the surgery and wonder if
> the 2700mgs. of Neurontin could have been a factor in the formation of
> adhesions and the IBS I now have post surgery. I am so distressed
> thinking that I did more harm to my situation by taking the Neurontin
