I actually have gotten to the point over the last 2 years where I'd told my Dr's I'd consider surgery if it would help my bloating, pain, and C. I'm being repeatedly told I have a "tortuous colon" and then it's just blown off like, well, live with it. Drives me crazy. However, I think surgery for our conditions is WAY out in left field - the specialist I saw at UNC said I'd basically have to be dying for him to even consider it. Some days I feel like I am dying and feel like BEGGING to die ... but I am not dying. And I have had surgery before (different kind)... it aint no picnic. Recovery stinks, too. Anyway, with all that said, here is something I found online about it and my mother in law keeps wishing they would do it to me but it doesn't seem the wise choice right now and any doctor I've even brought it up to has looked at me like I've lost my mind. I am NOT advocating this, I don't even know a thing about who put this link up (it's from Russia, I just noticed, interesting)... I'm just saying this is the only thing I've personally ever seen on it at all: http://www.ispub.com/ostia/index.php?xmlFilePath=journals/ijs/vol3n2/hemicolect.xml
