Seprafilm (adhesion barrier) has been somewhat effective for me.  Although I do still suffer from adhesions, it had definitely helped to reduce the amount between each procedure.

I consulted with a general surgeon here in Jacksonville, FL. He said he wouldn't operate on me because of my experience with adhesions returning. He said he hasn't heard of "Sprayshield" of anything that is used to prevent adhesions from returning. He referred me to a Pain Specialist. I would think that all doctors who perform surgery would know about the latest and most advanced products used or coming on the market soon. I found a website for a Dr. Cook at Vital Health Institute in California. He is performing adhesion surgery laparoscopically with a high success rate (70 percent). I wrote him yesterday and received a call from his staff today. Since it wouldn't be possible for me to go to California, she referred me to two websites for doctors who are member of the Academy for Advanced (AAGL) and doctors who perform minimally invasive surgery. When I get the websites, I'll forward them to adhesions@adhesions.org. I would love to find a doctor like Dr. Cook who is located close to Jacksonville, FL or at least on the East Coast. If anyone knows a doctor like him, please let me know. Thanks so much.

Linda, Jacksonville, FL
