Really bad pain at scar site 12mths on...

[Trillian]

it could be adhesions on the scar tissue? Or it could just be a cyst that is totally unrelated to the scar tissue. I hope he can give you an answer though hun, that would be sucky having to put up with it.

Grr Typed out a reply and it got lost!! I ended up in hospital for wed and wed night. Turns out they suspect I have developed an auto immune disorder of the bowel. I need to go back in the new year for a colonoscopy (sp?) and biopsys and stuff. In the meantime the symptoms will just have to be managed as the flare up. I was on nil by mouth for 24hrs which is called bowel rest, it idea being that you stop the bowel and let the inflamation die down. You are on an IV though while this is happening!! It was my first night ever away from DD so it was tough all round but good to be home. I am on a pretty bland diet for now just letting things get back to normal. I am glad that it resolved quickly. I am relieved it isn't scar tissue or anything like that, the doc seemed pretty confident that once they identified which condition it was I would be able to manage it with diet and possibly medicaiton if needed.

Thanks for all the good thoughts!!!

Sorry to hear you ended up in hospital Amy, but is sounds like they've figured out the problem. At least you get an answer I guess. I hope you feel better soon
