For the last month, I haven't been living. I've been hospitalized several times for an ileus (or what they think it is), and the doctors around here refuse to operate on me. I contacted my surgeon in NJ, and he's trying to fit me into the schedule. Part of my small intestine keeps closing off several times a day, for hours (sometimes up to 6 hours). I break out in full spasm in the abdominal area, and it's put a pause on my life. I can't wait until this is resolved.
