I appreciate your advice, but I just am suffering so bad I cannot even walk at times. How is anyone supposed to live like this? I understand that more surgery, more adhesions, but I even cannot believe that scar tissue in your pelvic area can cause so much pain. I even wonder if my doctor understands. Isaw him yesterday and he asked if I was feeling any better, andI feel like he does not understand at times. I just am not the type to complain about anything, but this has got me! All I know is that I have had alot of faith in my doctor, and I have had alot of friends that I have told them about, and he has helped them, good doctors are hard to find. Thank you again! I will keep you informed about how things are going. Looking forward to feeling good again! Toni Welsh

I am contemplating more surgery now due to this same trouble,
I had pelvic pain and leg pain too! I went in and the dr.
did a lap. but told my husband when he got in there he can
not see my last ovary, he did a laparotomy, untwisted the
bowel, was full of adhesions, and removed last ovary, it was
stuck to abdominal wall, he said he had to literally pull it
off, I had no pain for 3 weeks, GREAT!!! But after 4 weeks
the pain was back worse than before the surgery, I can not
stand it, I called him yesterday to go thru another lap.
He said that is all he could do, abd hopefully the laser would
help the adhesions not grow back,but it is interfering in my life.
There are times when I cannot even get up, or sit or bend.
The pain is awful, but it is in lower pelvic area where my
bowel he straightened, is and goes down to my legs. I am
looking for HELP!!!!! Can not stand the pain!
