The pain is intermittent (thank goodness...I feel for the people who have chronic pain) and I've had every test done because it CAN'T be the adhesions! Xray, CT scan, ultrasound, colonoscopy, endoscopy, blood tests, small bowel follow-through with contrast, etc.
My primary doctor believes that this pain could be from adhesions....the surgeon (who's sent me away twice now, the first time saying it was just constipation; the second sending me to a gastroenterologist) keeps testing me for other things.
Should I see a different surgeon? Should I just push him to do the surgery?
