Charlie, I do have a few questions for you, in regard to your posting. Have you had your appendix removed? Have you ever been told that you have endometriosis, or have you had any previous abdominal or pelvic surgeries? If you have, you could have adhesions. I am not a medical expert, but adhesions are very possible. The more surgeries that one has, the more likely adhesions will form, and maybe worse than before. There is no adhesion barrier in this country that's 100% effective in preventing adhesions. Hope this helps. Millie.
