Re: Symptoms of Adhesions

Kerry, Yes, I get dizzy spells, weakness and am tired all the time. For the past month I have also been having muscle cramps and "floaters" (vapor-like squiggly lines) creating blurred vision bad enough that I wouldn't even be able to sign my name to a check if I wanted to for a few hours. I also have extreme bloating under my rib-cage which has been making it hard to breath lately.

I do not know if any of these are symptoms of my adhesions though because I have also been dealing with many other problems for the past 1-1/2 years that aren't related to my adhesions. It is hard to tell which symptoms are from what because I also have hip and possibly back problems, an ulcer and hiatal hernia, low blood pressure, change of life and severe constipation. I do know that some of my problems are a direct result of my adhesions in the past.

Glad you found help with your problems and are now feeling better. May your pain-free days continue! JEAN (from PA)

Hi everyone, This is the first time I have ever read anything on your site. I am so glad I found you and I hope you can help me. I have been sick since January 2001. I have been to many specialists and no one could find anything wrong with me. Anyway, finally I found a Dr. who is treating my for hormone therapy. Anyway for some reason he wanted to do a pelvic ultrasound and found a cyst on my ovary that he wanted to go and look out. Well, he couldn't even get into my pelvis becuase of the adhesions and ended up making a large insision. Just for info. I have always had adhesion problems since I was a teen. My questions are this. Have any of you had other symptoms such as dizzyness, weakness, blurred vision, leg cramps and things like this. The weird thing was, I didn't have pain this time with the adhesions. I don't know if its because I have always had them and i am just used to the pain or what. Since my surgery 3 weeks ago I feel great. I am sore, and still working up my full strength but i feel great. First time in months. Just wanted to k now if you all have had that. Thanks, Kerry
