That is sort of what I have been told too. Although my gyn found a
surgeon who said he would operate, laparotomy, too and he also said that
the pain and adhesions would only get worse over the years. I think he
told the gyn thatbecause they get denser, and it then makesthe pain
worse when the dense adhesions pull on the bowel. The gyn said
yesterday the bowels my sister has left, were stuck down to the pelvix
floor like mine are, so I hope she does not end up in pain after
recovering this surgery. You want to be pain free after going though
all that.
Love to all,
Toni
