Adhesions

I have suffered constantly from this problem since 1964(age 14 yrs). I have had a total of 21 surgical procedures (I will be happy to disclose all ops if anyone is interested) plus numerous laprascopes. My problem started with an appendicetomy that went horribly wrong. I now suffer constant chronic pain, have a rather lonely lifestyle due to family & friends not understanding my predicament. At the beginning of June I was operated on once again & the barrier seprafilm was used. Unfortunately, the procedure was not successful as the pain returned approx 6 days post op & at about dau 21 I had a full blown small bowel obstruction. Is there anyone out there who would like to communicate with an Adhesion suffer in Australia?
