Hi: I too have just signed up with this site. I have been following for some time now, and am just literally blown away by how much I can relate to you all. My pain started when I was about 16 I am now 39. I have had laprascopes 5 in total, tubal ligation, hysterectomy, ovarian cyst operation 3 times as they left m e with one lovely ovary, and most recent surgery for ovarian cyst in March of 2001. Dr ended up backing out of it but did major adhesion take down. Ever since pain has been worse, had only one partial bowel obstruction but pain is getting worse. My husband is absolutely wonderful...but frustrated as he doesn't know how to help me. I can longer work and drs will not operate again until bowel obstruction. Say its to risky and more adhesions will form. I have been told I have a frozen pelvis and my guts are one big mess. I am so thankful to have found this website. I am from Canada so who knows how long before spray gel will get here. Sorry to ramble on Thanks for listening ....Tammy
