I am 51,had a abdominal hysterectomy in 79,with removal of rt. ovary. Recently I developed pain in left lower pelvic area,radiating to the floor of pelvis. Upon examination by my gyn,he said there was a pelvic mass. I than went for an internal ultrasound. There was no mass,but a definite thickening of colon. I was referred to gastroenteroligist,who attempted to perform a sigmoidoscopy yesterday. He was able to enter only a short distance,and unable to make a turn due to adhesions.He now wants to do a barium enema,to see on film where the narrowing is. My question is, can adhesions cause this kind of pain,that will affect the bowels? There has been a change in bowel habit.If so what is the next step,and outlook?
