Peggy, I first wanted to let you know I found a doctor that has been in
practice for over 30 years, I will talk to him on Monday morning. I
also wanted to say if the doctor feels another surgery would help then I
have to go back to the military doctors. I have suffered from adhesions
over 3 years, I had a TAH then I got an abcsess, I started pain in my
right side and after a year and a half of fighting with military doctors
they found the reason and removed my right ovary and adhesions and
lifted my left ovary. At the time of the last surgery I knew nothing
about adhesions but looking over the internet and the group have given
me the information that would explain why I am in so my pain. I suffer
from left side pain now and doctors have said the ovary is stuck and I
think that is why I am in pain everyday, but also after the last surgery
I started pain with my bowel. At this point I would like to try one
more surgery, the last surgery helped with the pain on my right side, I
still feel pulling but the pain is nothing like what it was before.
There is a doctor at the military hosptial that listens to me and agrees
at this point a surgery would be best, but since he can not do the
surgery because he is a doctor( almost all the surgeries done at the
military hospital are done by residents not doctors,the hopital is a
teaching hopital)I would have to find a resident doctor to listen to me.
I know this is confusing, but I hope telling you it might help
understand what my problem is. If the doctor agrees about the surgery
then I would fight to get a doctor to do the surgery. Another thing I
learned from this whole thing is when you look for a doctor make sure
that they use adhesion barrier, my last doctor did not believe in them
so I was not given a chance.I been on the list since it started but I
changed my name to crm because I usually use chris or christine but to
avoid confusion I started using crm.....but my name is Chris..... Thanks
for listening to me ramble on and on....
