I had this barrier put down after a hysterectomy that showed massive amounts
of adhesians on my intestines..The results were very good for the first 4-6
weeks and then I noticed that I was having pain in the lower abdomen if I
did anything unusual.. Sex, lifting, etc.. I don't know whether this is
normal or not..I hope this is helpful and would like to know if anyone else
is experiencing this after having a barrier put down...
