colon was attached upward to a tissue, causing severe pain and constipation. Then this year I had a exploratory lap to remove the gallbladder due to stones. I read that I am at risk for abdominal adhesion from these surgeries. Currently I experience occasional pain and bloating (on and off). What can I do to prevent further adhesion from forming ? Is there medication to help reduce adhesion ? I appreciate your help.
I am at home recovering from my 4th adhesion surgery - I started with a volvulous 7/6/02 and had 5 ft of large colon removed - 2 wks later complications and another surgery - than 11/03 abither blockage
and 1/7/11 had complete small bowel obstruction with a 4 hr surgery ad 10 day hospital stay---I an seeing a gastroentomologist next week and hoping there is an end in sight---any advice???
Louise in SD has any ine had success with physical therapy I have been reading about??
