"i had to have more than 11 abdominal surgery for various different reasons, most related to child birth and ruptured ectopic pregnancy. i developed hundreds of adhesion&#039;s all over my abdominal cavity. i went to many doctors, however, there is no treatment except for more surgery, which works for all of 6 months before the severe pain is back 3 fold. my pain was so intense and constant that i lost down to 90 pounds because eating alone was to painful. after wasting my time on other medicines and doctors, i finally got into pain management. my doctor gave my nucynta 100mgs 4xs a day. it totally relieved my pain and i have over the past year gained up to 113 pounds. the pain is gone, i can eat, live a normal life, and be a mother and wife again."
