Adhesions after perforated appendectomy - Adapt, Interceed

I had a perforated appendectomy 2 years ago. Now I feel tightness and discomfort. Going for a colonoscopy next week. I anticipate surgery.

The gastro doc says to avoid surgery at all costs.

But I would prefer to take surgery and take the risk than living with the discomfort for a lifetime.

The literature vary, but most say that there is an 70% chance of improvement.

SO...What say you all? Do the surgery or wait?

Has anyone tried Adapt or Interceed in their surgery.

PS - What with IHrt.blogspace and why is that website going after that german doc?
