Kelly, I have real pets, and they are the ones that suffer because "mammy" is having a bad day! poor things! mY kids is grown. I wish you luck, and I hear in your "vioce" the frustration!
My goals was to lose weight after surgery in March, I wonder if adhesions mutiply if you stretch and rip lose an already existing adhesion "bed"?
some times I think they do!
I will say again, if NOTHING is eaten for several hours I am in no pain, dizzy from low blood sugar, so it is a trade off.
sometimes I feel like an old lady swapping my pain is worse then your pain, and I only want to help others see that they are not crazy, and that many do understand!
Blessings, Sue R in Ohio
