Femoral hernia pain

Wow… Thanks so much for the response. I really appreciate your input. I was just so torn on what to do especially with the insurance consideration. I am on Medicare.
The doctor took his time with my exam, was so thoughtful and listened to what I had to say. He was actually referred to me by Hopsital for Special Surgery.

I know I have a lot of pelvic stuff going on but this is different. It even hurts when I sneeze. I told him
I would bring the surgical
Reports from my endometriosis surgeries and hysterectomy images if he wanted to see what had happened. I am so afraid of having another adhesion mess which was I thought was this was at first but then I felt i this deep pain that started in one specific spot and was always there. The rest I already explained. I wanted to discuss the adhesions with the doctor and possibly having a GYN surgeon there to look for and possible
Endometriosis and remove it. At 57 there shouldn’t be but then again I had to restart my estrogen patch which i was reassured was a very low dose and i would be ok with it.

I don’t want to look for more problems. I just want to cover all bases and feel better. I am realizing this hernia needs surgical attention now. There is no way I can wait any longer. I hurt too much and have no quality of life since this happened. It ruined my whole summer. I am
Usually able to deal with pain and get out but this has really done me in. Even though I have Medicare this is my health and I want the best treatment. I don’t want a repeat of severing an artery.

I just realized I found an article you wrote on this in Pelvix Rehab. I emailed it to myself and saved it as a PDF to show the hernia surgeon and my GYN.

I’ve been going to this new pelvic pain GYN for over 6 months…I’ll spare all the details… but he’s helped the IC with instillations. He attempted the pelvic pain i had been describing with trigger point injections. Some made me flare worse and others did nothing. Anyway I called him on a weekend in agony and that s how we got the ball rolling for the MRI I requested. I had him Feel Where it hurt but no one ever mentioned hernia. Pushing on it and massaging made it worse. My orthopedic consult to check if it was a hip flexor problem or labral tear said to get checked for sports hernia and that’s how I wound up in NY.
Sorry for the typos. …it’s late and I’m on my iPhone but was do excited to respond to you. This has been a nightmare and although no one wants surgery I can’t continue like this. At least you made me feel validated Thank you
