Hello Helen,
I have adhesions that have attached to my small bowel and are causing
partial small bowel blockages on a regular basis. (once every 2 weeks). I
had surgery (laparotomy, not laparoscopy) to remove them in October, I was
good for 6 weeks. Dec 6, the blockages started again and I have had 4
occurances since then. We are not sure if the adhesions are close to the
liver or not as my surgeon did not want to go near the liver because of the
re-routing of the bile into the small intestine. I am considering surgery
again as I cannot tolerate being sick this often.
Hope this is of help to your lady.
