    Abdominal swelling?

    Seeker
    Did you decide what you were going to do? Do you have someone to do your surgery?

    I am having more pain that is now going across my lower belly pelvic area. I feel like I am getting a hernia in the left side too but the pain is going across down low. Uggghhhhh. I’m not taking any pains MEDS other than Tylenol because I don’t want to constipate myself and make things worse.

    I had a causal epidural on Wednesday for a disc herniation with annular tear to L5-S1 and it was suggested that could be causing me pelvic pain. It has somewhat helped my sciatica pain but this pelvic pain is awful. It is waking me from sleep. And now the steroid is irritating my gut. I just want to get better already.

    How can it be that some people have no pain from
    Hernia and others have tremendous pain??
