    Help With Hernia Pain

    I am located in Dallas, TX and go to the Dallas VA and they are the ones that are saying I am going to lose my testicle and leg. I did have a small hydrocele and some kind of cyst, at least that is what the last urologist told me at Duke University in NC while I was stationed in Fort Bragg. I have not heard or been told about the varicocele nor have I been told that I have one. I have tried to use my private insurance through my job and they denied the claim as the VA and Tricare did not take the paperwork that stated I was covered during the time of the hernia and hernia complications. I just saw another doctor at the VA yesterday who told me about this page and wanted me to put it out there for help, because he told me I either need to have every nerve burned or removed and refused to remove the mesh because he said I was at such a high risk to lose my leg and testicle. I am lost and I need help, I have had spermatic cord blocks, nerve blocks and more medications than I even have wanted to be on just to be told I am going to have to live like this forever and deal with it. I am hoping this page helps or yo can point me in the right direction. Thank you for your time
