I have recently undergone a Right Hemicolectomy (part of the bowel and
colon cut out) to relieve he pains of Crohns disease, the operation went
well . . . until i developed an infection adhesions and a twisted
bowel. I had to have a laperotomy (sorry about spelling). Now 6 weeks
after the operation I want to get on with my life (I'm only 17!) but i'm
having continous pain. The doctors say its an adhesion but only a small
one. I'm fully functional going to the toilet, it's just the pain. He
put me on buscopan to relieve the spasms but they don't seem to have
worked. The pain sems to build up and then make lots of gurgling noises
then the pain goes. I ould like to hear from anyone who is in or has
been in this situation before. I really don't want to hear that it will
never go unless I have surgery, is this right? the doctors think it will
eventually go itself. I hope so.
