To Michelle I feel so bad for you!! What your going through sounds awfull. The pain is not in your head. Don't ever think that or you will go crazy. I hope you find a good doctor, unfortunately they usually cannot help us. I have had 3 surgeries for adhesions and gave up on doctors. I take probiotics and vitamin supplements. Try fresh ginger for the nausea. You can make a simple syrup with equal parts water and sugar peel and chop the ginger and boil until sugar dissolves. Add it to tea juice or fruit. It helps me. Good luck to you! And your previous husband did not deserve you. I hope you find the strength to deal with this pain your in. Where do you live? There's a surgeon in Arizona that helped me as much as he could. Dr. Nelson in lake havasu city.

I don't know what meds you're taking, but I'm on heavy narcotics. I go to a gastroenterologist for the nausea and vomitting. Turns out I ended up with gastroparesis, a slowing of digestion due to the narcotics I'm on. I hope this helps and I wish you luck with your battle. from your sister in pain, Susan -----Original Message----- From: IAS Admin <tracy.joslin@adhesions.org> To: Multiple recipients of list ADHESIONS <adhesions@mail.medispecialty.com> Sent: Sun, Jan 27, 2013 4:26 pm Subject: please help me!
