Hi Evryone, I hope this years brings better health to all of you.

Last year I had surgery for adhesions and my bowel has been working really well since then. My problem now is the pain I am getting from my scar. It more severe at night than the morning and more severe if I have been busy all day. Some days I can hardly walk. It is really getting me down. Its like having an obstruction but my bowel is working well. I have been back to the doctor and she has put me on Tramadol and Voltaran. If this no better in a month I will have to go back to my surgeon. I dont want another operation and I dont want to take painkilers forever either. I am so sick of being sick. Has anyone else had this kind of post operative pain ? how did you cope ? I would love some feedback .

Thanks Christine
