It's just has to be adhesions

Surgeries:
1986 - C-Section
1990 - C-Section
1992 - Hytorectomy <sp>
2001 - Thyroidectomy (no pain/adhesions in my neck yet)
During my hystorectomy the doctor asked me while in recovery if I had
problems with bowel movements. I hadn't noticed? I had always had
painful bowel movements. He told me that I had adhesions sever enough
that he had to take one of my overies and my fallopian tubes had been
completely taken over and that the adhesions had wrapped around by
entestines like fingers and was partially blocking them.
Six months after that I started having irritable (painful)loose bowel
movements and have continued since 1992. Today I now get cramping after
intercourse with my husband, to include lower back cramping and feeling
nausiated and when having the urge to have a bowel movement. Bowl
movements actually make me sick to my stomach with pain.
I am currently uninsured and have been for 4 years. I started a new job
and my insurance doesn't start up until June, 2004. So it's a waiting
game.
The pain doesn't double me up, but does make me sick to my stomach, and
very uncomforatable. With it now affecting my husband as intercourse
causes the onset of cramping now, I am almost in tears with frustration.
I'm tired of doctors, check ups, surgeries and hospitals, yet I feel
like this cramping and IBS is to the point I just can't stand it
anymore.
Also I'm not in constant pain, but I only get 4 or so days pain free
then it starts in again and last a couple of days, then I get better and
I'm pain free for another 4 days or so, then the pain starts up again.
Is there any temporary relief while waiting for insurance to kick in?
Any advice or suggestions are welcome.
