Helen, I wanted to let you know that Dr. Semertzides is giving me a call
some time tomorrow. He feels he may have some hope for me and my pain. I
am really struggling with my weight right now,(too much) and would like to
lose about 40 lbs.. before I would even think about going under a knife
again. Do you have anything on weight on the problems associated with it,
and adhesions? If so, let me know. Thanks Kim Hickey
