Thank you so much for your response. Is there ANY sort of reference to
doctors in the milwaukee area who have heard of adhesions and believes
they are real anc cause problems. i am afraid that the only alternative
is that my body will eventually just shut down ... The doctors i have
convinced to help me dont believe me, yet they have found adhesions 4
times. i dont know what to do anymore... it is so difficult to get
them to repeat laparoscopic surgery. And i really need a fifth NOW.
is there any sort of reference? or any help in finding surgeons who know
about this? i have tried the internet and emailing/calling doctors at
hospitals.
Thank you so much
monica
