Jean, Thanks alot for that info. I don't remember getting that kind of test. I will remember that when I do reach my limit with this and go somewhere. I don't know this is such a strange thing, I also get very nauseated when I have the pain and leakage. Hopefully, someone can figure it out. I'm pretty sure though that this adhesion mess is the cause of this. Kel

Jean,

Thank you for the info. I have tried Ditropan with no good results. My physicians assistant was going to try and order me some "plugs" to wear but she couldn't find them.

I thought after surgery that this stuff would be cleared up but that is not the case.

Every time I have gone for this I tell them that I even leak when I lay down and they ask me if I am sure. Jeez, then they can't give me an answer.

I also have "menstrual like cramping with this" Don't know if this is bladder or adhesion pain. I get embarrassed as I feel like I always have an odor. I had to go to a office meeting yesterday afternoon and I got so nervous that every one would think I smelled that I couldn't concentrate.

After your adhesion surgery, did yours go away immediately? I hate asking every one about this but I take my ARD friends word better then a Drs. We know our bodies a lot better then they do.

I appreciate your feed-back and I may write the doc that sewed up my bladder in Pennsylvania for info.

I may just have nerve damage and there won't be any thing they can do. I don't think I have had a nerve test.

I also hesitate going, because I have so many dr bills that I am paying on but I guess I will have to go. My son needs braces so I have to think about paying for them also.

Kelly,

Just thought maybe I should give my in-put.

I also had my bladder sew back up with my hysterectomy 26 years ago (had fallen down w/ womb).

I had bladder problems before my adhesion surgery this past May.

1. My bladder "always" felt full, even after just going.

2. I would only dribble when I went.

3. The only time I went good was after laying down for several hours

(like what-ever was blocking it moved when in this position).

4. When I went and only dribbled and couldn't go anymore I would get up and then it would run down my legs!

5. I had groin pain

6. My bladder was touchy like when full and I had pulling.

7. I would leak urine when I coughed or strained.

My bowel was attached to my pelvis by adhesions on the left side and I also had adhesions on the right side.

I don't have those problems anymore.

I also had the same problems in 1989 before my adhesion surgery and the IVP was normal.

I also had a nerve test done with a probe in my bladder. It measures the activity of the bladder in 3 different positions, laying down, sitting & standing.

Mine was normal laying, abnormal sitting and totally erratic standing.

They put me on Ditropan which helped but after adhesion surgery I was ok and didn't need it.

My ovary was attached to my bowel and pelvis.

Jean
