Subject: frustrated
I am new to this forum, I have wrote to a couple of people, and when I read
what you other girls say, it sounds as if I was writing about myself. I
added my name to the adhesion quilt-Denise Gould- I put all about my history
with adhesions, surgery, etc.
So I am not gonna write all of that here. I am so frustrated of having
pain. I wake up with severe pain, I go to bed with it. I woke up just
crying today, because I hurt, and I am frustrated. My last surgery was
about 1 year ago, and I don't have insurance, so I was going to the health
department to see a Gyn.---I really like her, but months after my surgery,
when I was starting to have pain again, she insisted, there was nothing
wrong, plus, I had a hysterectomy, and she wanted me to go on premarin,
which I did not, (and just to say, I have been doing fine with menopause
without the premarin)!!!
I decided to go to my family doctor, and to make a long, long story
short------he really is not helping me. I have had all kinds of tests, and
he knows I have adhesions, he will even say, "I know you have adhesions",
but he does not want to take a look inside. Given my history, every time I
have had a laporascopy, the adhesions are usually a big mess, wrapped around
my bowel, cysts in them, etc. (I also have been diagnosed with
endometriosis). I have pain pills, thats about all the relief I get, I am
supposed to take them every 6 hours, but the pain is back by 3 to 4 hours.
I am going back to see the Gyn, at the health department on May 1st, is my
appointment---unless I find another doctor, or hospital to help me. I do
alot of research on adhesions, endometriosos, but have any of you found
something to help relieve some of the pain, besides pain pills?
Help----Denise
