Dear Dr.Moore, My name is Lisa Graven, I was the first American to go to Frankfurt for surgery with Dr.Kruschinski. I came home 100% adhesion free and have the pictures to prove it! I can tell you that the treatment they offer in Frankfurt DOES WORK! I have had other problems, chronic pancreatitis, which may have been caused by my hysterectomy, or maybe a very large vascular adhesion they found attached to my liver... who knows...I had a "third look" done 3 months later, and I'm still adhesion free!! I am also a case study that Dr. Kruschinski did, I have some copies if you are interested,or have any other questions,you can email me personally. I am also now the patient advocate for the doctors in Frankfurt. I've helped some patients set up their trip to Germany. This is the best chance we have at becoming adhesion free. It worked for me, and it has worked for many others!! Lisa

>>Hello folks,
>>This is from me, Mary Lou, also known as "desperate". As some of you
>>know, I have made he decision to go to Germany as soon as possible to
>>have surgery by Dr. K. Someone sent me a message stating that three
>>others are going over there for surgery on Jan 16, and Jan 17. Does
>>anyone know who these three are and how I can get in touch with them? I
>>am hoping to have my time there overlap with their time there, as I do
>>not have a companion to stay with me in the apartment. I am having a
>>plastic surgery, not a laporoscopy, in which they will undue my scar
>>pull back as much skin as necessary, and remove the adhesions, spray gel
>>the surfaces, and they resuture. I hope I will have time the day before
>>surgery to go to the grocery and stock up the apt with food, because I
>>do not think I will feel like venturing out for several days post-op.
>>Three people have gone so far and all are now adhesion-free. As more
>>and more go, eventually there will be a caravan of adhesion sufferers
>>making the trip. Yes, It is expensive, but when I think of day after
>>day of this continuous pain for the rest of my life, the thought
>>overwhelms me. thanks. Mary Lou
