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 It looks like many of the mesh problems were due to the type mesh: "Many complications related to hernia repair with surgical mesh that have been reported to the FDA have been associated with recalled mesh products that are no longer on the market. Pain, infection, recurrence, adhesion, obstruction, and perforation are the most common complications associated with recalled mesh. In the FDA’s analysis of medical adverse event reports to the FDA, recalled mesh products were the main cause of bowel perforation and obstruction complications." Nowadays, about 90% of the repairs use mesh: "Hernias have a high rate of recurrence, and surgeons often use surgical mesh to strengthen the hernia repair and reduce the rate of recurrence. Since the 1980s, there has been an increase in mesh-based hernia repairs—by 2000, non-mesh repairs represented less than 10% of groin hernia repair techniques." We'll see. I had a repair on the other side in 1977, it's held up all this time. Of course, I don't swing at trees with my golf clubs! -- John H. Hope you're having a great day! |

Also, I made a firm offer to be sociable with you in exchange for the same treatment. I've not received a response from you to that offer. -- John H. Hope you're having a great day! |

"John H" wrote in message ... No, this is in my groin and will be done with an incision. It's not the laparoscopic surgery but the open repair. ---------------------------- I remember my hernia repair vividly. It was done by the same surgeon who had performed a mastectomy on my wife, so I knew him pretty well. He was joking around with me before they administered the anesthesia. The problem is that I don't accept anesthesia very well. I fight it. Always have, even with oral surgery. The docs think I am out but I am not. Anyway, he thought I was out and started making the incision. I was groggy, but still very much awake. I lifted my head a little and said, "HEY" ! Scared the bananas out of him. He said, "You can feel that?" I said, "Damn right I can". He told the anesthesiologist to "hit him" and that's the last I remember of it. He came by later in the recovery area and apologized. He told me that all the monitors indicated I was out like a light when he started. Told him "no sweat" ... it really didn't hurt, but I didn't want him to get too carried away until I was really out. He said it took quite a bit to put me under. |

Doesn't sound very enjoyable! -- John H. Hope you're having a great day! |
