[HerniaQuestions1]

Hey [USER=”2029″]Good intentions[/USER], thanks for responding! The original surgeon is out of town until the beginning of Jan, but I have an appointment with them when they come back. I got a reference to the second surgeon because it’s all the same hospital/insurance. I had went to the ER because I was alarmed, I thought perhaps it was an incarcerated hernia. But I think you’re right, that’s what the second surgeon said also. That a recurrence, especially so early, would be really unlikely.

I suppose it is still pretty early. I had such little pain initially the first couple of days that it also sort of alarmed me that it suddenly became swollen and painful. I’ve still got a lot of healing to do in any case so hopefully it gets better!
