My dr after doing a laparoscopy in Jan '02, said my adhesions were so dense he could barely get the scope anywhere. Anyway, I've still had a lot of pain & had no luck in getting pg-except 3 mths after the lap, then I lost the baby at 9 1/2 weeks. I've been on fertility med,had tons of fertility tests, but my dr says my ovaries are encased in adhesions, as well as a lot of other organs. So-after a lot of thought & a lot of dr's & more tests, we decided on the laparotomy. I want to know if anyone has had good luck with this surgery or if they just experienced more pain. What kind of adhesion barrier was used? Thanks! Amanda
