Having had long discussions with pathologist friends of mine as well as
surgeons, it is perseved that the peritoneum will generate pain...but
there doesn't appear to be pain pathways on the external intestines. I
feel that this is a true perception as I did not experience anyother
pain at any time throughout my 14 years with adhesion disorder. In my
two previous adhesional lysis, I experienced pain always in the lower
right quadrant..and in each of those operational reports, I have ONE
attatchment to the peritoneum in that area! I ask you all to secure your
own operative reports for your own study, to aclaimate yourself to the
PROBABLE adhesion attatchment sites that you have, and then compare
those sites to your pain area....this will give you a semblane of
awareness of why you suffer the symptoms that you do. Keep in mind,
each consecutive surgery might produce more adhesions, but you will
probably be able to get a decent idea of your adhesional involvement.
