Sally, and anyone else,
This computer messaging is new to me - but I have been going thru the
same types of things about my health problems as I read about in this
posting. I'm 45 & sooooo tired of it all. It's so welcoming to see
that I'm not alone in my quest to find a DR who does not think that I
just need a frontal lobotomy. Almost seriously... but yes, 10 yrs ago
I was even subjected to electrical "shock" tests to test my nerves (for
the weird health symptoms I was having at the time - & proved nothing,
except for my "TORTURE" tolerance!). That stopped all of my doctor
office visits for quite awhile though, ..I somehow recovered on my own
in time - I believe a blessing from GOD.
Well, I'm again believing from my on-going symptoms - the various aches
& pains - that for a second time, I'm needing some adhesions surgically
removed. I was hoping that you might have heard of any new techniques
prevents adhesions/scar tissue recurring (ie..laser surgery? or
something).
My surgery background is - two C-Section births, appendix removal,
hysterectomy, & ovaries/adhesions removal(Jan 86).
With that last "exploratory" surgery - this quote from the surgeon (who
wouldn't believe my complaints before hand) - "I'm really, really
sorry....I didn't realize you were THAT SICK!" - and then went on to
explain how bad the adhesions were squeezing around all my organs, & he
tried to cut away as much as he could.
At least I had finally convinced that DR to do anything & he finally
agreed to do exploratory surgery!!! I have had a pretty good run on
better health (not constantly in pains) since then - until this last
year or so - I've been gradually getting worse again.
Any info, suggestions or help on the subject - would be greatly
appreciated.
Disheartened & afraid,
--
