Hi, I dug this most eloquent posting from the archives. I have noticed many are sounding desparate about seeking surgical interventions. A rush to surgery can have ramifiction beyond our belief. I credit this site for giving me the ultimate tool as an ARD sufferer....a proper education on what it means to be a sufferer of this disease. Please read the post though it is long and may it lead you to the adhesion quilt. This site is about education. The sad fact is people are repeatly having unsuccessful surgical interventions, people in desparation asking for a doctor somewhere somehow who will take it all away.

You must take the time to ask your questions to the archives, know this site back and forth. It's a busy world and time is tight, you may have been slowing down but this could very well save your life. Don't mean to sound scary but these are the blunt facts. Thanks Wally Thanks Karla
