Make
Surviving it a Reality -You are Not Alone
One
of the biggest factors in the rehabilitation of the patient
suffering from Adhesions seems to be the removal
of feelings of loneliness. Being able to share your story.
Participation in support groups are a big help not only
for patients, but for their partners also
Emotional
stress plays a major role in the pain that Adhesions
can cause. A good support network is essential and "a
problem shared is a problem halved." Many patients
have reported that by sharing their experiences with others,
be it by phone, local support group or the Internet, their
feelings of loneliness, abandonment and frustration have
abated, engendering a healing frame of mind.
Adhesions
and ARD are conditions that are not clearly recognised nor
understood and for those who are suffering it is often a
very lonely existence. There is a great need to raise the
level of awareness among doctors, healthcare providers,
government, and the public as a whole, to prompt a more
comprehensive and integrated care system for ARD sufferers.
Patients
suffering from Adhesion Related Disorders are often
sentenced to the frustrating ordeal of having to find experienced
and accessible healthcare for their condition.
