I am so happy for all of you. I had my surgery in germany on Mar 8th, with no return of adhesions and I'm doing great. The pain is totally gone and I no longer get up in the morning wondering if I'm going to be in pain again. It does take a few weeks before you feel better, even though Dr. Korell says 1 wk, it took me about 2-3wks.
