Hi @rachaels, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! You sound exhausted from trying to fix pain and digestive problems you’ve been having since your surgery. You’ve made a positive step forward finding others here as your doctors continue ruling things out. Hang in there!

I am tagging others in this discussion that have been having similar experiences, some mentioning scheduled doctors appointments that may have helped. @max05210 @whysomuchgas @ctarrillo @alexaadams

You mention Nexium and gas x help relieve your symptoms. Have you noticed anything you eat particularly helping or causing problems? Does physical activity or maybe stretching help at all?

Hi hi have exactly the same problem.... A lot of test my symptoms start 4 months post appendix removed u probably have some abdominal adhesions with time it s little bit better and for the digestive issues try to eat 5, 6 times a day but smaller. There is no cure for abdominal adhesions there is a surgery call adhesiolysis but it's only done in emergency cases ( bowel obstruction) yes adhesion can cause bowel obstruction it s a emergency so try massage and change your diet and don't worry if one day you have crampy pain , no stool, or vomiting go to the ER immediately, if you don't have this symptoms don't worry I hope it helped you ( sorry for my English) I'm french

Hello, did you had a colonoscopy?
