    P.S. On my earlier post, I meant to say that I am happy to hear that I can have a hernia treated via Local Anesthesia…not locally. I truly do not think we have experts in this city. for hernia/groin repair. They may claim they are experts but are they really?? I have done research. If two of the Texan Players had groin issues then why were they sent to Pennsylvania for surgery. Food for thought. My Take is they wanted one of the best in the country. Seems to me there is a very short list of these experts…and you know who they are. (-: God Bless You for bringing smiles back on your patient’s faces.

    Thank You, Doctor. I did see the URO/GYN last Tuesday. I felt very uncomfortable telling her that i had some testing done the past 3-4 years for the same type problems and yes, a Ventral Hernia and bilateral Inguinal hernias did appear on a Ultrasound, MRI and a CT scan looking for a reason for my discomfort. I told her that I did not return to the former doctors as they did not have a clue. My honest comments turned her off. I could tell she was not interested in me. She was aloof. Her RX was HYDROXYZINE HCL 25mg, at night. This will help with all Pelvic Pain, she said. Hmmm. She also RX’d Premarin Cream and Nystatin Powder. She said the bulge in the right groin was a pulled muscle. She took a Urine sample and I have not heard results. She told me to return in 3 months. I don;t think so. Meanwhile, my Cardio’s nurse called me on Friday and asked how the appointment went. She got an earful. They are taking this doctor off their list. Today the RN is calling another doctor (Internal Med) and requesting an appointment for me ASAP. I am so happy that if indeed a hernia is the root of my discomfort that I can have this treated, locally. I have even talked about bringing my Cardio with me where I would have surgery. Costly? Yes, but well worth the price to be pain free.
