How did you and your surgeon deal with the blockages? I just got home from the hospital yesterday and this is the second one I’ve had in the past three years. A blockage in the small bowel due to the adhesions from previous surgeries, which may or may not recur. I sure hope it doesn’t because it is a miserable thing to go through …just as bad as a diverticulitis attack.

That’s what I’m worried about. I have had several abdominal surgeries before and my surgeon already mentioned the scar tissue I have. He’s still going to try robotic but I’m worried he will have to convert to open.
