Hello everyone! It has been a long time since I have posted, a lot of
things have been going on. For those who don't know me I will try to be
brief. I have had 8 surgeries for adhesions and their related problems.
I have had an ectopic pregnancy after a tubal ligation when I was 29
yrs. old. This started my nightmare with adhesions. I have endured a
total hysterectomy due to adenomyosis, had my appendix and gallbladder
removed due to the adhesions. My intestines were punctured during one
surgery and I almost bled to death. I had a bowel rescection and bowel
obstructions so severe I didn't think I was going to make it. I was in
so much pain my primary care physician put me into the hospital to get
the pain under control. I was to the point where I couldn't eat or go
to the bathroom. The intestinal adhesions were so severe I had trouble
walking. While in the hospital my husband and son contacted Drs. Redan
& Reich. To make this long story short, they agreed to perform surgery
on me. No one in this area where I live would touch me. That surgery
was Oct. 30th of 2000. They were the most informed, intelligent
doctors I have ever met and believe me I have many. They have given me
my life back and I thank God for every day I have. Thanks for
listening, Sherry
