HI ,
so sorry to hear about the pain you are suffering.
I was in hospital on a drip with pain killers and still nothing was done!
Being a registered nurse myself I phoned around friends and ended up seeing
a Dr (on cyprus) who is a gynaecologist,but specialises in keyhole surgery
.He operated straight away and used 1 litre of a high sugar lotion to help
prevent future adhesions forming.
He said my bowel was completely locked by adhesions.,so cut the adhesions,by
corterising so no blood. I instantly felt so much better as everything was
free as it should be.
The problem seems to be that many areas do not specialise in adhesion
surgery.In major ops afterwards the blood loss forms new adhesions.So
keyhole surgery is a good idea-and corterising.
I still have bowels locking pain.
I am eating lots of fibre and even had colonic irrigation (hydro colon
therapy)
It has been 6 months now (Feb) since the op and I had a pain spasm in march
and end april (on aeroplane which was unsettling to say the
least!)Afterwards I feel great as the Dr says that the bowel moves
everything through for a few days after.
Anyway I do hope you have luck with finding a 2nd opinion.
Take care
