I also have adhesions on my diaphargm which impede my breathing and I have to wear oxygen to bed at night. My o2 saturations dip into the low 70's. I have an enlarge liver with adhesions present however they are not stuck together to the best of my knowledge. I never had endo. So i don't know if that's what caused your's or not. Kathi

I'm curious if there are any other board members who have this problem.

My liver is attached to my diaphragm by adhesions as noted during a

surgery several years ago. Due to the proximity to the hepatic vein it

was decided removing the adhesions was too risky. This surgery was

performed by a well known pelvic pain/endometriosis/adhesion specialist

so when he was reluctant to remove adhesions I figured I was doomed to

live like this.

With a history of severe endometriosis I have to wonder if it's endo

that caused the adhesions on my diaphragm/liver...I'll never know.

I've complained of RUQ pain for many years. Eventually I had my

gallbladder removed and while pathology showed my gallbladder was,

indeed, diseased, it was chronically inflamed, my RUQ pain continues.

The pain is always there. It's a constant dull ache that sometimes

turns into a sharp, stabbing pain. Certain movements can exacerbate the

pain and it has even woken me from a sound sleep if I move wrong.

I've got a history of wildly fluctuating liver enzymes and wonder if

this could in any way be associated with the adhesions. At the present

time I'm awaiting approval from insurance to undergo ERCP to rule out

biliary blockages.

I was really more curious than anything to know if there are others with

liver/diaphragm adhesions and, if so, what symptoms you may be

experiencing.

Thanks!

Debbie
