hello Cherryl,
thanks for responding. When I do abdominal exercises I feel burning
around my second incision (12 years ago). But, more worrisome is that
after a recent abdominal work-out I experienced a lot of bloating (no
gas), discomfort and finally vomiting of large volumes of fluid and
undigested food. So, I was wondering if somehow the exercise had
aggravated the adhesions causing some sort of temporary intestinal
obstruction?? Maybe it was just a coincidence. thanks for your good
wishes and I am sending you wishes for pain free days, too.
