Mary.. My suggestion would be to not only ask that question, but take him
the information you find inthis society regarding adhesions. helen is our
archive and article representative and I am sure she can offer you a number
of web sites to print out , study, educate yourself as to adhesion disease
and then take them with you to your appointment....that is what I would do!
Nothing stops them from coming back. And each invasive surgery will only
create more adhesions unless the adhesilysis is done by a specialists in the
area of laporoscopic adhesiolysis surgery. And there are less then a handful
even in the USA! Where do you live?
