Hi everyone. I'm a 23 year old female who has endometriosis. I have
had 2 laparoscopies for my endo and adhesions. I have minimal endo, my
adhesions are my worst problem. During my surgeries my docs said that
my colon was flipped up and adhered to my back wall. Both times the
adhesions were cut, though I think they always reform. I have chronic
intestinal problems. I get severe gas pains almost everyday and my
bowel movements are completely out of wack. I strain constantly and my
bm results in nothing but mucous and water. Sorry so graphic. Anyways,
my gyn doesnt think that my adhesions are to blame for my gas and she
told me to continue going to my GI doc. My GI doc is of no help. He
thinks if I had adhesions they would cause constipation only. I have
had numerous GI tests including a colonoscopy, and everything is
negative. Does anyone else experince any symptoms as I do? I just want
to know that I'm not alone. And does anyone have any solutions on to
how I can cope with my intestinal probs. I would appreciate any
feedback.
Thanks
Tracy
