    Suffocation after Removal

    You are right. After I sent the response, I too felt that the word “just” would be misinterpreted and thereby may perhaps would offend you.

    I meant it from a surgeon’s point of view: Mesh removal should not be taken lightly. It is for sure a complex procedure with risks and complications. However, of all the types of mesh removals, the onlay mesh placement is the least technically demanding to remove and neurectomy associated with it is similarly the most straightforward and limited.

    I basically was expressing that I am more shocked by your story, because you have such severe symptoms after an onlay mesh removal than perhaps if you had a sublay or sandwich mesh removal with retroperitoneal neurectomy.
