It is possible for scar tissue to cause pain, but that is extremely rare after having your tubes tied. Tying your tubes rarely causes that type of scar tissue. I am so sorry that you are having such serious symptoms, but the only way to figure out what is causing the pain is for your doctor to do a careful exam, and maybe do an ultrasound, or a CT scan to check for other things like cysts. If they still find nothing, they might need to look inside with a laparascope to see if there is scar tissue or some other problem. I understand that it is expensive, but you should talk to your doctor if they have any options for a payment plan, or if the hospital may be able to provide some financial assistance. I wish you the best of luck and hope you feel better soon.
