Should this require surgery?From: anonymous@obgyn.netThu, 21 Nov 2002 22:42:28 -0600 (CST)
I have had a hysterectomy and ovay removal. During the surgery the doctor said 2 loops of my bowl were stuck(one to the left ovary and abdominal wall, and the other loop of bowl to my bladder.) She was able to free the loop of bowl that was stuck to the ovary and remove the ovary and let the bowl fall back down into place. However, she started to cut through the extensive adhesions as she put it from the bowl and bladder. She said she got halfway through detaching the bowl from the bladder, but had to abandoned it because she was afraid of puncturing the bowl, or bladder. She said it became to tedious, and they were really stuck together. She said it spooked her, and she decided to leave the rest alone. Now almost 6 months later i continue to have bad bladder pain, and pain with bowl movements, and gas. She fears that the problem is that the loop of bowel that is still partially stuck to the bladder is the culprit. She said the adhesions were bad, and because of complications after the surgery with blood clots that remained in the pelvis around the bladder could have formed more adhesions. She said I am probable going to need surgery again to finish removing the bowl from the bladder, and removal of dense adhesions. She said she would not be able to do it lapo, but would need to cut the abdomen open. Is this necessary? Would I need a full abdominal cut like i did with the hyserectomy? I hate the pelvic pain, bowel, and horrible bladder pain that plagues me constantly, but I hate to think of going under the knife again, and the recovery time. Please help. Is there another way?
