Hey Texas T,

I am scheduled for 2 level ADR in August. However, I had a 5cm in my colon 10 years ago and had 8 inches of my colon removed. After surgery I had a hernia and they put a mesh in my stomach area. I know there is scar tissue all over my insides because I have twinges and pain but it ususally goes away if I stretch. Pain is a sign something is not right. I would push forward...immediately if you have vomiting, bowel problems or severe pain. I ended up in the hospital for 3 months because they ignored my complaints. By the time the Dr. diagnosed the mass in my colon it had perforated and gave me peritonitis after which I fired my doctor! I learned the hard way that you are your best advocate listen to your body it does tell you things. Let me know if you want any other info.
