couldn't see how something that occurred just about 40 years ago could come back this severely, in a fairly short period of time.
Actually I have seen 1 case like that already myself. Man had an appendectomy at age 16 then at age 67 doubled over in pain. After spending way too much time trying to diagnose some sort of cardiac problem they discovered an adhesion. The pain didnt start until it had completely grown around the small intestine and choked it off. From what I was told it was also some 6 inches from the original incision.
