I have a few problems with my stomach. I had an operation a year and a half ago which relieved the adhesions from endometriosis. The surgeon also found that my bowel and ovary where stuck together. after the op I didnt get much pain other than when I had my period.  After a few months the pain went back to normal, being painful pretty much all day every day. I also have ovarian cysts which I have been told are too small to remove. I have just been given medication for IBS by the DR a week ago as she thought that might help the pain. It hasnt and the pain is getting worse as time goes by. Could there be a chance that maybe my bowel and ovary are stuck together again? Or could it be something else all together? Please help me, Im in alot of pain and just want to get on with things but right now im not able to. Thanks
Hi. Thanks for your query. History of operation for adhesions due to endometriosis noted.; Now you have got pain in the abdomen and not sure what the cause may be. I would advise the following in such a situation:First get an enterocolitis, meaning barium studies of the intestine to know whether there is obstruction or not. Secondly, get a CT scan of the abdomen. Also get a second opinion of another Surgical Gastroenterologist and a Gynecologist so that you get a combined opinion and get the proper diagnosis and plan for a treatment, which obviously may be surgery again. Till then be on the liquid diet. Take Probiotics and multi-vitamins and iron as you may be deficient in all respect.
