My gosh, poor women.
I am wondering why she is still obstructed.
Sounds like you need to go to a dr. that specializes in adhesions. It is
not 100% cure but maybe better surgery. Dr. Redan and the two drs. in
Germany. If she is interested in Redan, I believe his ph# may be on this
site and the other two drs. you can request on here if you are interested in
Germany.

My 73 year old wife had surgery 10 days ago for post-op(35 years ago
TAHBSO). The surgeons found densely adherent portion of small bowel and
removed several inches and did an anastomosis. Since then she continues
to have an obstructive picture, needs an NG tube and IVs. She will
start on TPN soon. It is now 10 days post-op. The surgeons say she
should open up soon but I am doubtful since the xrays show no
improvement compared to the preop films. Anyone have any experience
with such a post-op course? What outcome should be expected.? more
surgery needed?
