Thank you for your candor. I am still on the fence on this and was hoping that watching my diet would take care of it but if that won’t help I will probably go through with surgery if I continue having these episodes. ☹️

Is the recommended surgery going to be performed with laparoscope or open abdominal surgery? That would make a world of difference in making a decision!

Sorry I have been out of power for 9 days. All I could think was I am glad I had that surgery.
It will be where you eliminate so much in your diet you will not have good nourishment.
I was supposed to be robotic, and they ended up cutting me from belly button down and had to call other Dr's to help to make sure other organs were not damage.
He said that there was so much damage and scar tissue from all the episodes.
Not trying to scare you. But, really just want to help.
