Tammie,
My suggestion is to seek a second opinion before considering
surgery again. I know for a fact that every time a person has surgery of any
kind there is going to be scar tissue that will form as a result of surgery.
This is called adhesions. I have had 11 surgeries and had to have a full
hysterectomy because at that time, I had 7 layers of adhesions wrapped
around my intestines. I should have had an intestinal specialist operate on
me at the time. But I didn't know. I woke up very ill and close to death
because the doctor was an obgyn and not an intestinal specialist. He took it
upon himself to do the surgery and took the risk.I ended up having even more
multiple surgeries after that, because of his screw up on me. I tried suing
him, but the lawyers told me it would cost alot of money and time. I didn't
have either. I prayed about it and gave it to the Lord. A few yrs later the
same doctor operated on another patient taking the same risk again and this
time the patient was permentately damaged. The patient sued him for 5
million and won. I was so happy for her because no one believed me.
My advice to you is get a second opinion before going thru any more
surgery. And go on the website http://www.adlap.com/ You will find the answers your
looking for.
Hope this will help you.
