Adhesions

My name is Angie and I am 30 years of age. I have had surgery 2x for removal of tumor and lymphnodes in the small intestines. (rare type of disease). After my surgery I took chemo (Xeloda) and now I am in remission. The problem that I have now is that I have upper abdominal pain, because of the bowel stuck to the wall of the stomach and that is call adhesions. The doctor told me the only solution is surgery again. Is there anyone out there who is suffering from this and what have they done for this pain? They say there is no cure for this.

Yes. I had surgery twice. First time because of adhesions around my left tube ovary. Then again, because the adhesions attached to my right ovary and large bowel. They attach themselves to organs. The best way to avoid the problems is to diet and exercise. I had a tubal ligation in 1977, and that started the problem. In 1988 I had the left ovary and then in 2000, a total hysterectomy.
