I'm so happy you found out the "culprit". I had such similar symptoms with my adhesions. You will feel so much better now! After any surgery you HAVE to pay attention to what your body is telling you....and don't take "you'll have to live with the pain"...or "it's all in your mind" for an answer.

Oh, yes, I will definitely be sending something to the surgeon who would not go in until something showed up on a test of some kind! The frustrating thing was that no one (except my PCP, who couldn't do anything about it!) would listen to the fact that -- whatever the problem was -- it was obviously getting worse.

I have been seeing so many ads from attorneys re: mesh problems; maybe you ought to contact
an attorney to see if they can make some of these guys pay attention.

Your suffering and dismissal by the medical people who should have been taking care of you
is unconscionable. I'm not usually a "sue the b******s" person, but you've been in pain MUCH
too long.

Best wishes,
