Thank you for that! Makes sense. I always imagine the first couple of days are definitely painful. As long as there is faulty fast improvement.
I’m in such a weird place. I clearly have something going on, possibly a full recurrent hernia, because of this bulge that gets fairly large after exercise. But for the first time in years I don’t have constant pain and discomfort. So I’m basically signing myself up for going right back into the fire after finally getting some relief. But I know this thing eventually will need to be fixed and I’d like to do it now before it gets worse and more complicated. But as always, there’s also a chance things go sideways.
Anyway, thanks again. That’s exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for. A variety of individual experiences.
