Hi everyone. I had my lysis surgery this morning, and I feel worst then I felt before I went in. This will be a short letter. I just wanted to let others know that I was so scared to have this surgery, but afterwards when I had awaken my doctor told me that i had adhesions from the top of my stomach all the way down. It took over 4 hours for the surgery, but I am so thankful that a large amount of my pain will be gone.
