I think That I have had many (partial?) obstructions over the years since I
was about 12. I am 29 and infertile from Adhesions. Still trying to get
pregnant for about 10 years. I had Adhesion removal surgery and a Tubal
reconstruction January 2003, ever since then I have been much better. My
"IBS" still acts up on me from time to time. I would wake up in the middle
of the night, some times throughout the day, I would get Sharp pains through
my abdomen and I would feel like I have to go to the bathroom, but it would
take hours to clear, I would want to sit on the toilet 'cause I would get
up go back to bed and 15 min later have to go right back wheather I did
anything or not. and finnaly i would pass the "hard" part and have Massive
Diareha. Then I wouldn't have another "episode" for a few days or weeks. I
don't know if it had anything to do with the adhesions or not but since my
surgery I it has been better, not great just better.

Hi Everyone,
How is everyone doing? Ok, maybe someone can answer me. Both of my
doctors- the family physician and the Gastro doctor both seem to
disagree on obstructions.
I have adhesions, and back in July of 1998 is when I had my 1st Bowel
Obstruction, so I know what it feels like. Everyday lately, I keep
having attacks of pain that seems like what it does with an obstructions
about 1-1 1/2 hours after eating anything. The pain seems to increase
and decrease in like a wave like pattern- gets really bad for a minutes
then backs off a bit, then worse and so on...
Plus I also start getting nausea, distended belly, and even diharrea
sometimes too.
