feeling adhesions so soon?

I had my laparotomy 2 weeks ago today. It seems that my incision is cut more into my right side, like it is off center. Definately cut more into my right side than my ohter 2 incisions. Anyway, I feel the typicall hardness under my incision on the right side, I feel a small round circle of something in the incision, and now I am feeling pressure, heaviness, pulling and tugging. Now my surgery was a laparoscopy turned laparotomy because of the massive adhesions found. I am wondering if it would be too soon to feel adhesions? Does anyone have experience with this? My doctor did use gelfoam and spent and extensive amount of time trying to cut out my adhesions. I'd hate to think that all the work she had done was for nothing.

Thanks.
