Thank you I have been suffering with these for about thirty years. A doctor told me after I had gallbladder surgery in 1973 and began having pain that it was probably adhesions, but if they don't bother you we won't bother them. Had a hysterectomy two years later and was told every thing was stuck together. They didn't say why and I had already forgot what the other doctor had said. then when I had gastric by-pass surgery six years ago the doctor told me that everything was stuck together. Not until after my first ARD surgery did I remember what the first doctor said after galbladder surgery. Keep thinking it would go away ONLY GETS WORSE after each operation. No MORE, God bless all those who are trying. Everybody is different so don't go by my story. Terrie

I hear "Just for a few months relief." They can come back worse or you can get all kinds of complications for wanting a few months relief. If you just have to have surgery and it is not an emergency, then at least go to someone that specializes in adhesion surgery. And even then, the cure rate isn't great. I am pretty miserable right now but I will not give in unless I see more good results. I have been to Germany and had the Spray Gel but I know they are more advanced now.

Hi Terrie. Gosh, six times just for the removal of adhesions? I am so sorry. Who did your surgery?

Do you think this might be your last one? (I hope, I hope, I hope!!)
