I've had too many abdominal surgeries for resections and adhesionlyses due to adhesions, and the surgeon wants to refrain from another surgery. I'm nearly completely obstructed at the present time and live with pain and TPN. I've had to use TPN for ten months out of the last 2 1/2 to 3 years, and am afraid that this time I won't get anything opening back up. Has anyone out there had a similar experience and have any advice or just want to lend psychological support? Thanks in advance for any input. Rebecca Tucker lagoon@lightspeed.net
