Hi Gail, it is kind of a murky subject. Here is a link to a website that explains it and also has a photo of a pretty huge “loss of domain” situation. I hope it doesn’t offend you, but I don’t know how to send you the link without the picture. https://www.sages.org/wiki/loss-of-domain/
Do you have a complex hernia? I’m curious because I believe that is what they referred to mine as…I had surgery on Oct. 11, 2017 and I’m a female. My hernia was large and was an incisional hernia at the site of a former ileostomy (I’ll let you look that up if you don’t know what it is…). Thanks and best of luck to you! I had my surgery at a large, well-known hospital and drove almost 900 miles to have it done. If you have any questions, just let me know. I may not have the answers since I don’t really know your full situation.
