Endometriosis and Adhesions

I am writing to ask anyone if they know of a doctor
worth going to who will listen to me and try to
help me. I was diagnosed with endometriosis and
adhesions over 5 years ago and am still suffering.
I am living on and off pain pills, depending how
severe my pain is. I am raising 4 children and
do not have any energy to even take care of them,
thank god they help me out.
The last surgery I had they found that adhesions
were acting as sticky tissue and forming my
intestines together. I have had a full hysterectomy
at 22 and 9 more since for adhesions and endometriosis.
They were unable to get all my ovarian tissue. It
seems I am having to have surgery every year and
now my doctor has given up and wont return my phone
calls. The ER thinks that giving me shots of pain
meds and sending me home is a way to live I guess,
and shake their head at me.
The pain is so severe, that I am willing to go
wherever their is a doctor who will listen and
not toy around with ultrasounds and cat scans,
which do not detect it anyhow. Does anyone
have a physician they could reccomend who will t
ake the initiative and do what is necessary to
help me?
My email is kdzioba@yahoo.com.
Thanks-
Kellie
