Got diagnosed with same last Friday. Operation scheduled for next Monday. No golf. That sucks.



Always loosen large weeks before trying to pull.



John, I don't know what your attending physician has in store for you,

but be VERY wary of those damn mesh fixes. I'm getting ready to lose

an employee for the second time for removal of mesh, which IMHO the

body never sees as anything other than a foreign body. This mess

includes a second major surgery and the complications of a huge

abscess.



I hope you fare better.



I had one repaired without mesh. That repair lasted about a year. The

second time around he used mesh and it's held up more than 30 years. MMV

My mesh is holding after 20. So far so good, but, there's always a risk of complication...
