so the people I know with the belly button method seem a-ok... but then a few other's like me with the open it all up surgeries aren't so good. were yours the less or more invasive method?
and never did anyone say to me at 27 years old, this may cause adhesions and that the pain I came in with would feel like a pinch from here on out. I do remember signing a might die in surgery paper - but no adhesions mentioned. another bit of info: Kaiser, the big HMO on the west coast were the ones who diagnosed my then-unknown gallbladder issue, as an 'obvious' psychiatric illness. so of course when I returned later with this new pain - my file was once again sent to the psych department.
so if anyone is searching for a surgical or health plan - may I recommend NOT Kaiser for certain.
information is power... -jack.
