Same goes for Denmark and other European countries.

I have tried gabapentin, but it didn’t reduce my pain – my pain is less neuropathic. If you’re having some kind of neuropathic pain, you may benefit from gabapentin. Regarding side effects I didn’t experience any major other than being a bit more tired in the morning. It is important to start at a low dose and increase gradually to minimize side effects. Your doctor should know about this.

Dear [USER=”2580″]DrBrown[/USER] and @drtowfigh
I am very grateful for your response.
I indeed feel it is a big decision having the mesh removed – however, it is the direction things are going now.
What is your opinion about the location of the red cross in the picture?

Certainly, I hope it makes sence now.

Dear All,
I have had 3 local anesthetics. First and second with 2.5%Bupi 40 ml at trickerpoint(pain area, very painfull). Third with 2.5% macain ca. 20 ml. These did not help much. I could still feel the pain. When using dermatome Mapping it all ends up with O’’s. I do not experience any noticeable topical pain certainly no numbness. Will try to describe where the exact pain is; point max 1 cm below christa iliaca sup,- about 6 cm medial for this -– a feeling of a small bulge in the depth. -
Interesting that you suggest imaging.
I have actually already had CT and MRI scans after my surgery. All of this was mandatory to my referral to the specialized unit with a medical approach. The images has mainly been used to eliminate other factors.
Now the focus has shifted from a medical approach to a surgical approach (mesh removal). Therefore, I am interested in what type of images you would suggest and specifically what to look for in those images. -
In the operative report, the surgeon states a lateral hernia and a “presumed” small femoral hernia.
Regarding the mesh, I have never been able to track down an approval. I am also concerned about that – unfortunately it seems the regulations in Europe are less restrictive than in the US.
I’m actually also concerned about the glue used for the fixation. Specifically the toxic nature of the degradation products as well as the exothermic reaction during polymerization.
Well it started with some irritation dragging down the right groin towards the testicles. I had my testicles US scanned before the surgery, they were both fine. The pain I’m having now doesn’t compare to the pain before surgery. I’m am not experiencing testicle pain anymore.
I have seen an urologist after the surgery, everything checks OK.
I experienced the testicle issue for a few months prior to surgery – however the surgeon was fairly confident she would be able to relieve my pain, so I was all for it. If I had known what I know now I would NEVER have agreed to the surgery. The surgeon told me before surgery that if a hernia would appear she would implant a mesh. Here, it is common procedure. One size fits all, no tailored procedure, unfortunately.
