Susan, I feel for you as last year was a year from hell until I went to Germany for adhesion surgery. Now, there are doctors in the US who can deal with them properly...don't ever have surgery unless the surgeon is very capable using a shield product so they don't come back.

All the best and keep us informed how you are doing.

Regards, Donna J

Susan,

You can be as loud as you want and still get ignored. It's been happening to me for over 2 years now. Most doctors just don't give a damn!
