It's probably adhesions are you booked in for another op? Look up enzymes to help with adhesions, that may help you. It did me 💗🤗😘

I was just like you. Found out after having blood test for Thyroid that I have high antibodies. Since going completely Gluten Free I have lost a complete clothes size and can go to the bathroom more regularly. I was afraid to eat before this at times and always having Laxido and another equivalent. I had surgery and personally think it was due to adhesions. Never had pain or was unable to go to the bathroom or pass wind before. It may be worth a thought? Not easy initially making the transition to go GF but I believe it's helped me. Also, less pain now, however, I do still have pain with Endo. Wishing you all the best. x
