I also suffer severe adhesions due to a dermoid cyst that ruptured in the 60's. Yes, I am part of the baby boom generation. It happened when I was 21, and I am now 54. I have a long vertical scar crossing a horizontal bikini scar. They have been revised twice, without barriers. I just wanted to mention that you might suggest the surgeon try a barrier under the incision (like septrafilm(sp)). I have problems with adhesional formation, under the incisions, and think maybe a barrier may have helped.
