I have adhesions from a direct result of a Total Abdominal Hysterectomy which I had 12/6/99. My adhesions are attached to my bowel, intestines and diaphram. My question is my ob/gyn told me I could not have a vaginal hysterectomy because my uterus had not dropped, and therefore, would have to have an abdominal hysterectomy, which I definitely did not want because I had been cut there three previous times for endometriosis and two c-sections. Is all this suffering I am going thru, only because she lacked experience in doing vaginal hysterectomies? If a person has a history of endometriosis and/or 3 prior laparotomies, should laparotic surgery be performed without advising a patient of their risk of adhesions?
