    Cleveland clinic
    general surgeon
    has done sports hernia repairs , abdominal wall repairs since 1999
    I’m extremely confused how the musculoskeletal ultrasound by the musculoskeletal guru that people drive all over the country from to see her could be wrong on all diagnoses
    I waited five months to get into see her and she seemed 100% confident that her diagnoses were correct
    The surgeon reports he has seen frequent falls positives with ultrasound calling out for moral hernia is way too frequently
    I know I’m only two weeks postop but it seems the longer you wait the worse things can get

    Does anyone know who the best surgeons are for that?
    Can the surgeon that put them in take them out?

    MRI negative
    first US NEGATIVE
    sexond positive but surgery I’m not sure what it showed
    47 yo female High level triathlete/ runner…. Dr after dr after dr since January.
    Pain R femoral triangle and R groin for 18 months.
    Pain increased after hard training block. Had to stop biking and running.developed pain left side.
    Iliopsoa bursae injection, iliopsoas trigger point injection, hip joint injection, SI joint injection, L3/4,4/5 RFA, prolotherapy to rectus femoris tendon x 2….alll with no results.
    FINALLY get into MS radiologist for US: B femoral hernias, R indirect inguinal hernia, conjoint tendinosis, remote R adductor longus tear (players college soccer).
    Finally an answer! Went into surgery. Accepted with hours and hours of tears that racing is not an option in 2018 and coaching girls varsity soccer would be tough as would be working a nOccupational Therapist.
    No femoral hernia, no Indirect inguinal hernia but had mesh inserted into bilateral inguinal canal due to weakening?Pain is severe and I’m not usually a wimp.
    Pain has always been worst at femoral pulses.
    Feel like I might have had surgery for no reason.
    will I ever get back to racing , Coaching, working as an OT?
    Am I expecting too much?
    What if I had mesh implanted for no reason ????
    i feel like my whole life has changed and I still don’t have a diagnoses.
    Many advice/insights? Could it be sports hernia?
