Denise,
I know exactly how you feel. I guess the only thing that keeps me going is
the fact that I have two girls 18 and 15 that still need me. I keep hoping
that one day they will find a cure for this. I'm at the point where I go
into my clinic once or twice a week for shots because the pain pills don't
always take care of the pain for me. I know that I'm about at the point
where I need someone to go back in and remove the adhesions but no surgeon
wants to go back in.

Subject: My surgery with Seprafilm did not work
I posted on here about my last surgery I had last month, I know for sure
the surgery did not work with the Seprafilm. I am in pain, just like
before I had surgery.
I knew there was a chance the seprafilm would not work.
Anyway, I have been depressed. I feel like now I have to accept that I
WILL have this pain forever. Even though I am on pain meds, they never
fully get rid of the pain, they just take the edge off.
I am so bummed out.
This made 8 surgeries in 3 years now.
I guess I want to know how you guys live your life knowing that you will
always have this pain with adhesions, and be happy.
Before I always had hope, that kept me going, now I feel there is no
hope to get rid of these adhesions, so what I want to know is how do you
live day to day without being so depressed and sad.
My pain is so bad most of the time, and I know it effects my husband and
8 yr old son. (mom never feels good).
I pretty much never feel like doing anything, unless I have to, and that
sucks!
Anyway, I had to vent, because I know all of you understand where I am
coming from.
I will take any advice and tips any of you have to give me.
Thankyou-Denise
