When I was 14 years old (nine years ago), I was diagnosed with a congenital misaligned intestines which from what i have researched (had to bc my mom lost my records) is called an intestinal malrotation which caused volvulus at the time. I was home-born and was not checked as a baby and such diagnosis was when I suffered severe abdominal cramps, vomiting of bilious fluids and bloated abdomen at that age. I had undergone exploratory laparotomy and appendectomy as well but was lucky that no part of my intestine had to be cut off and that it was fixed by reallignment. I had some cases of abdominal cramps after the first few years but they were fixed by OTC pain relievers. Recently, I'd suffered from severe abdominal pain again in which both oral and several shots of IV pain relievers weren't able to fix. The initial diagnosis via CT scan is a 6x6 cm ovarian cyst and so oophorectomy with ex lap of the lower abdominal part (intestinal, just to give way to the ovary) were performed and during the operation, intestinal adhesions were also found and so lysis was also performed. Three days after the surgery, I was allowed to eat a soft diet and I was normal for the first two days but on the third day, I developed symptoms again - severe cramps and bilious fluids vomiting. I was readmitted to the hospital and the diagnosis were ileus and intestinal obstruction (on the upper part). I was a candidate for another ex lap but with prayers and luck, I was cured by merely nasogastric decompression, motility medication and electrolyte imbalance correctment though I had to stay at the hospital for more than a week. My doctor claims that my intestines are sensitive and so I was advised to avoid hard-to-digest foods and to take a dietary fiber supplement to compensate for my fiber needs. I've read in some articles that ileus is sometimes a post-operative complication but in my case, the severed part which is the upper intestines were initially untouched and so my doctor couldn't blame his surgery.
With this medical history, how much am I at risk of more intestinal adhesions and obstructions in the future? Will the change in diet actually help or are they bound to happen again? If yes, how frequent could they be? Also, what could possibly be the other long term effect/s of my multiple surgeries?
