Belle, Good God, STOP! Don't let that moron touch you!
First off adhesions CAN NOT be detected by a CT scan,
ultra sounds, ect....adhesions are pretty much invisible
to technology from the outside of your body. You might
have to have a laporascopy done, but this too is risky
if you have a lot of adhesions, we can talk more about
that later or you can read some of the past postings
on the IAS message board.
Belle what started your adhesions?
What operations if any have you had done abdominally?
If you do have adhesions then Dr Moron is right, there
is noting HE can do about them. But if the adhesions
are binding your bowels then that might have to be
operated on to unbind them BUT I would go to see another
Dr and another until you are comfortable that you have
someone that not only has a brain but is familiar with
adhesions.
Belle there is a wealth of info on adhesions and bowels
and the obstruction and binding of them due to adhesions.
Look, learn, know your body, cuz they won't, make sure
you are calling all the shots and know exactly what is
going on with you. When you find good info on the
internet print off what you find out about and take
it with you to the Drs you see, which could give you
a feel for what they think and know about the subject
at hand. You need to find a Dr that you can feel
like you have a best friend in and this Dr. Moron
doesn't sound like the one!
Well Take Care, write back if you need me,
in the mean time
Pain Free Hugs and Best Wishes to You and Yours.
