Hun your not crazy . Adhesions a nasty the stick to everything and I
dont care what anyone says they do cause alot of problems mine are all
over my bowels which causes my bowels to obstruct what ever you do dont
let them do any more surgeries that will cause more adheasions if you do
get a obstruction and it is not a total one have them put in a ng tube
and do IV fluids and pain meds and wait it out . I have had 18 surgies
for obstruction and now they say there is nothing that can be done for
me anymore . now they have found that if they put the bowel at rest
most of the time it will correct itself I also suggest that you take a
stool softner every day I have been taking Colace everyday and it has
improved my bowels I'm not saying you wont every have problems but it
does help to stay more soft. I also suggest if you have a problem that
you get constipated alot and you bowels are senistive dont eat alot of
foods that are hard for the system to digest if you want to chat or need
a friend that has been through the same type of things you can add me to
your aol buddy list my name there is Looney728@aol.com Take Care and God
Bless ..............Sharon
