I am a 40 yr. old single mother , having had 16 surgeries in 3 years
for Intestional Adhesions. My last surgery was Aug. 8 , 2002. Just a
few weeks ago. My condition is getting much worse. I am concerned
about the facts of what Adhesions can do to the tissues, organs and
anything else that they may attatch themselves to, that ultimately lead
to death. I would like to get information on how I may help in the
"Testing" field. On several different surgeries I have had "interceed"
placed inside of which did not work, also have had 1 full cut Abdominal
surgery with the placement of full Intestional and Abdominal coverage of
"Sepra Film", of which the full cut caused the Adhesions to grow larger
and faster!! currently I now still have some residual of the "Interceed"
from this last surgery.
I would like very much to help in the research in finding a cure to stop
this from happening to common everyday normal people like myself,,,, can
you please give me any information as to where or whom I may call?? I
live in Florida and I heard there was testing being done in Tampa???
