I'm glad the gel seems to be working. Maybe it will hold up for you and at least help with the adhesions. Did I see that you had MS? Bless your heart if you do. You must have a lot of strength to handle all that you are going through! If you have kidney stones as well then I would worry that they could be causing you additional chronic pain. Have your doctor's ever recommended doing anything for you for your stones? Take care and keep the faith. Ginny
