Post-op -- intergel

I had my post-op yesterday from the second look laproscopy. The good news is that he found only a couple of small adhesions on my left ovary, which has been a problem in the past. He found no other adhesions anywhere else he had used the gel and all major and/or minor organs looked good. He saw no signs of endo, although since he doesn't work with endo that much, I wonder how much I can trust his judgment. We'll see. The bad news is that I am still in a great deal of pain, so am going to have to look elsewhere for the source, so Chris, no adhesions don't seem to have been the major part of my problem, although they contributed some to the pain, but there's obviously other things going on as well. As far as the pelvic pain is concerned, will have to look more at the GI stuff when I have my GI follow-up in September. Maybe the lower back pain is from the kidney stones I have? See a urologist next week about that. And I'm now suspecting that the leg pain, instead of being related to the pelvic pain, could very well be a symptom of my MS. So yes, the adhesions are gone, at least for the moment, but I'm still looking for some more relief. But getting back to the intergel, it seems to have worked very well, so those of you with more serious adhesion problems might soon have another alternative for treatment.
