Adhesions to Laurie

[Guest guest]

Thats interesting about the massage therapy and chiropratictioners.

I never knew that. I am going to see the surgeon next week and see

what he has to say. It is interferring with bowel motility and the

pain is getting worse, waking me at night. I even started taking

Dilaudid again which I hate doing.

I had lysis of adhesions a few years ago when I had my gall bladder

removed. It seemed to work as I didn't have problems after that with

adhesions but that is when the SOD reared its ugly head. He did the

sphincteroplasty about 18 months later and found that my pancreas was

a walnut. The rest as they say is history. I am going to ask him if

at the time of the sphinteroplasty did I have any adhesions return.

That would be a good indicator as to whether or not laproscopic lysis

would be a good idea. 5 months after the sphincteroplasty I had the

Beger and it would be interesting to find out if I had adhesions then

as well. I had the total 7 months after the Beger and the surgeon in

Cincy said I had lots. Then I had the hernia repair 6months after

that and my surgeon said I had some then as well. So its obvious the

visceral manipulation has caused these. But did the first lysis

help? I dont know.

Thanks for the input I know they can soften in time but I dont think

I can bear to have pain for another 3-5 years. I just cant take it

anymore. I just want to go back to normal, or as near a normal life

as one can have all things considered.

How are you feeling? How are things at work? Did you get your new

monitor yet? Did the computer nightmare that plaugued you last week

get straighten out? Did the bank straighten things out, man that

would have just pushed me over the edge. I dont care if its $3 or

$3000; dont mess with my money! I went shopping yesterday and fogot

all about the mailing envelop. Sorry, sheeze I am such a ditz these

days. I asked Billy to pick me one up today. The nearest store to

where I live is about 25 miles so its not easy to just hop in, but he

works in town. If he doesn't I will make it a point for tomorrow. I

promise!!

Talk soon

Before I got sick with FMS & CFS, I was a certified massage therapist

and it can help. You have to find specially trained therapists for

this sort of thing, and that's the rub.
