Hi Sarah,
I already had the Interceed thing done - caused me to develop worse
adhesions. Good luck to you on your Lupron treatment.

2nd lap was 11/98, my dr found the same situation where the adhesions
had again bound my lower intestine. He cut the adhesions and put
Interceed on and around several areas. Its my understanding that
cutting the adhesions from both ends will results in more scar tissue
which is a source of the adhesions.
