Katie, There are ways to have pain management without the bowel problems. Pain management is one of the main answers for some people to function.  I was sent to a university hospital where they put a pump in me. You have to use very little meds in the pump. The pump by-passes the intestines so the side effects are not there. No the pump does not get rid of all the pain, the blockages, bloating etc. but it helps me to function. Also, massage and stretching helps some. What do you suggest beside's pain management?  Rob, I hear ya! I think you need to keep looking for someone that is compassionate and can give you suggestions on what other care you could get for your issues.
