Dear Pascale,
I am so glad that you are up fro writing. But I am sorry to hear about
your lower abdominal pain. I had to go back to Germany as well. Not so
much for the adhesions but for the entrapped nerve in my vaginal wall. I
remember the depression I had when I had to go back on pain meds. The
throbbing never realy stopped and Dr. Korell and I fiqued that he was a
bit too conservative last year. I did wait over a year to go back,
though and praised God everyday for the fact that I was on less that
half of the pre Germany pain meds. Going back was hard but I am so glad
I did. The nerve is starting to heal and I can go on almost no pain
meds now. He was able to get the rest of the adhesions as well. But I
can only take baby steps now. He took aut a 3 cm. area of the vaginal
wall and put it together with one stitch! Everything I do makes it hurt
so I lay around alot. We are very special people in that we have to
take every improvement and thank God. I hope that you have the courage
to go back to him again. Love, Joanne
