Alicia,
What kind of bowel surgery did you have? I had a
colonoscopy recently and was told I have lesions
and a large hemroid inside. I have opt not to have
surgery at this present time due to financially
not able to. My suggestion would be to always seek
a second opinon before opting to have any more
surgery. Surgery just causes more adhesions
and eventually can rob you of having a productive
normal life. Surgery causes more adhesions than
before. I believe that we need to start looking
at other avenues and find a better solution to ARD.
Right now I am trying to get my state acknowldege
that ARD is a real disease and is uncurable at
this present time. I have learned that there are
several prominent medical universities that are
aware of this problem and alot of the medical
students have done studies on this as a credit
course. You would be amazed at how big this
disease really is.
Just want to let you know that you are never
alone and that I am always here if you ever
need to vent. I will keep you in my prayers.
Definitely seek a second opinion.
Dalene
