Gosh - you are not alone! I am 26, and had several surgeries on my colon
about three years ago. Since then, I have had adhesions removed four
times - and very recently also - I had them removed in September and in
October they had already come back, and I had to have surgery again. I
am also a wreck worrying about when I am 60!! The pain is already coming
back again - and I just had surgery twice! I guess my point is yes -
they can come back that quickly, I wish they couldn't, but they can.
Just know that you are not alone. Reading your entry made me feel
better, and though I've never written in these before, I just had to.
Best wishes to you, keep your strength up, and keep working with your
doctor.
