Dear Rosie, Barriers seem to work for some people,and not for others. There's a
new one in Europe, intergel, that some people are allergic to. Some say it
helps, others, not. Who's to know? Another reason to have laproscopic surgery
from an expert, not just any old doctor, if you have bad adhesions, is to
prevent bowel obstructions. They found adhesions wrapped around my intestines a
month ago, during my surgery . These kind of adhesions are dangerous because
they can cut off your bowel and you wind up in your local rural hospital with
someone with no experience with adhesions and they make more problems because
they do open cuts instead of laproscopic procedures, which are much easier on
your body. Good luck, Love, Sally
