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.
It is my current understanding that he is not using a mesh fix. Upon reading your post I called his
office. She couldn't say for sure, but said that whenever he is using the mesh he has another doctor
with him. In my case there is no other doctor, so she thinks he's not using the mesh.
But, given the foreign bodies in my body already, one more probably won't make much of a difference.
Best wishes to your employee.

Hope you're having a great day!
