ovary removal

Posted by shawnpeters @shawnpeters, 3 days ago

In 2022 I had my left ovary removed. They did it laparoscopic but pulled it out through my muscle. since this surgery I felt like something was off with my muscles and GI. I have been in pain everyday since my surgery. I have GI issues, nerve issues, I can't move with without being in pain. The scar, muscles and organs in that area are always in pain. Doctors won't diagnose it and I keep getting passed from place to place with all them saying pain management. Ive also lost range of motion in my abdomen. Im currently going for nerve blocks now but I know thats not all thats going on. my only other option is for them to do an "exploratory" surgery. They also say that can make it worse. So sorry for anyone going through this. It's a nightmare and our healthcare system doesn't make it any better. I would give acupuncture a try. Ive been it in for years and even tho I struggle it has broken down some of the scar tissue. Try functional acupuncture or a sports oriented one.

I had a laparoscopic abdominal surgery years ago. I notice a problem right away after the surgery with one of my incisions. It looks and feels like something was sewed me up the wrong way. Since the surgery Ive had a lot of issues. GI issues, nerve issues, pain, muscle disfunction ect.. Very painful pulling sensation in the area. No doctors want to diagnose it. They keep finding things in that area but say are "insignificant." But it's all in the area I'm having pain. Can anyone recommend me a good specialist that has experience in this? Also is there anywhere that can review imaging? I need a doctor that can reading imaging and that can look at muscle. I really think my issue is showing up but doctors are somehow missing it.
