Dear Anna; Hello, My name is Valerie and I am a fellow sufferer of
adhesions. I read your E-mail regarding your surgery next week. It seems to
me that the doctor will be checking to see if your ovaries and/or other
internal organs are adhered to other organs. This is very common in some
women. I personally have had 6 surgeries to remove adhesions, and each time
the adhesions return. Each time I have surgery, the surgeons have tried
different procedures to fix the problem. I have not tried everything that
there is to try, but I will if I can because even though the pain diminishes
some after each surgery, it is short-lived and the pain returns. My
intestines have become kinked to the point that I had to have my last
Laparotomy last Jan. Not all women continue to have adhesions after they
have had surgery to remove them. I have heard many stories where these women
have had been cured after one surgery, and then there are women like myself
where the adhesions simply refuse to stay away. Some women have had more
that 10 or 20 surgeries! My faith and hope in God had certainly helped me
through this. I pray that you will have a full and complete recovery after
your surgery and that God will guide the surgeon's hands. Take care, God
Bless, and please feel free to write back to me. Sincerely, your fellow
sufferer, Valerie.
