Reply to "Abdominal Pain - Possibly from Adhesions"

ADHESIONS. The more I learn about them more I hate them. I have a jpouch. Keep having reoccurring bowel obstructions with hospitalizations requiring dilaudid, n/ g tube, I.V.s and medicine for vomiting.  I go to Johns Hopkins in Baltimore. The blockages usually resolve in 4 days.  I have had 2 surgeries for lysis of adhesions with only fair results. After one surgery I was free of blockages for approx. 4 years but after the second surgery I was only free of the hospitalizations for approx. 7 months. Has anyone had sucess having release of structions? Who is doing most of the problem surgery now at Cleveland Clinic? I feel so trapped with no options other than to wait for the next obstruction. My doctor does not feel diet and exercise contribute to the bowel obstructions.
