I've had several surgeries in my 53 years (C-section, exploratory
abdominal with re-sectioning of the bowel, tubal ligation, complete
hysterectomy, various laparoscopic procedures, adhesion repair). For
the past 5 years or so, I've experienced intermittent severe abdominal
pain, but in the recent month, the pain has been severe, accompanied
with a "washed out" feeling. I had a pelvic ultra-sound procedure this
past week, and it was discovered that I have an adhesion at the
posterior end of my vagina with a more than 3-inch diameter sac of fluid
incapsulated. I have read most of the literature, but I haven't found
any cases where fluid sacs are involved. My surgeon is going to order
more tests next week to see if there are more adhesions in the abdominal
cavity. He is essentially leaving it up to me as to whether or not to
do more surgeries. What is worrisome is the sac of fluid, but he
doesn't seem particularly concerned. I was wondering if anyone had any
advice or similar situation.
