Lynda I am sorry to hear what happened, doctor should of before hand discussed the possibility of having to do a full abd incision. I know the doctors have said we are going to try lap if that doesn't work we will do full cut, so I was always aware of what might happen when they went in. Of course most of them were full cuts because the adhesions had just webbed the whole abdomen. Hugs and hope you feel better soon. Kim
