hello

this is wonderful!! i just had surgery from adhesions. i have had pain for 3yrs and it was found that i had adesions from my Hystro back in 1998. they found that my vigina was attached to my colon,wonderful huh? i was so encourged to know that they found something and that i wasn't just making this all up as some of the drs thought,you know you can tell by the way they look at you and now i read where this might come bac??? wonderful. i wrote back in March about my problem but i can't seem to locate it but i jut want folks to know to go with their gut instinct becasue my dr. didn't want to do anything,his recation was" it's according to how much pain i can live with" but my gut feeling told me to tell him to do a Lapso,and i'm glad that he did.
