Thank you for your response, I agree I thank God every day for my time here on earth. I remind myself over and over I have two beautiful daughters and five beautiful grandkids ( including two sets of twins) that I adore. I had never heard of adhesions until I started having problems myself. I didn’t have a choice when I had my initial surgery I had a 15lb benign tumor in my uterus, that’s what started it all.
One more question do your adhesions cause pain on a daily basis? Mine do but I’ve learned to deal with them.

I'm sorry to hear about the problems you are having with adhesions. I am in a similar situation with my abdominal adhesions. May I ask how you deal with the daily pain? I haven't found a good solution for that yet.
I would appreciate any advice you can give me as my doctors are of very little help.

My gastroenterologist offered to refer me to a massage therapist who specializes in adhesion care. He is with a university medical center (OSU Wexner.) Maybe you could check into something like that. I’ve had bowel obstructions and extensive adhesion repair surgery, and know it’s not fun.
