I am right were you are. I have had over 10 surgeries for ovarian cysts and
my pain is so intense I have problems coping. Ive seen doctors, had every
kind of test, acupuncture, healers....... and its comes back to adhesions in
the bowel and intestine area there is no blockage but the pain is horrible.
I am so tired of doctors saying there is nothing they can do except surgery
which just adds to the problem. I dont like taking pain killers they just
make my stomach upset and dont really work. A few glasses of wine work to at
least get me to sleep until the bowels start again at 4 am.
You are not alone as I am just finding out. I have seen so many different
doctors and just found this web site on my own. Wouldnt you think with all
the information available to the medical proffession that a gyn would at
least know of this organization???
I am sorry I havent given you any ideas to help with your pain. SOmetimes
Yoga and stretching helps but its temporary or getting in a swimming pool or
the ocean so you are weightless but that is only temporary.
Good luck
