Karyn,

I understand your plight - - I, too, was unable to have children. Only you can determine if you're ready to give up this option. However,please don't look to the hysterectomy to "do away with" the adhesions. If anything, the hysterectomy will complete more. Adhesions are the body's way of overhealing. Think of it as a scab that you keep picking at. The more you pick at a scab, the worse the scar is. Good luck to you.
