Boredom?

I had an inguinal hernia. Surgery definitely didn't take 30 minutes though, more like 3 hours. And I couldnt walk for a good 4-5 days afterward. It was not done laparoscopically though, and I got mesh inserted. I was good for almost 2 years and then I started having problems, and still have problems from the surgery which no one can figure out, fuckin sucks. Hernias are no good. Oh and it's anesthesia, almost bud.

I think inguinals are harder to repair. They're usually larger. My first umbilical hernia took longer to repair. Whether it was the doctor, severity, who knows.

What kind of problems are you still having with it?

My mystery stomach pain I have is actually completely different to the pain from the surgery. And no they didnt just leave clamps in me SS. Ive had numerous docs look at me, even had a herniography which is supposed to tell whats going on inside and is one of the worst things ever. I had never seen a needle so thick and long go into me, they put it in below your belly button and shoot iodine so they can take pics. The needle felt like it was gonna go through my back. My problems are more like the problems you have when you have a hernia, though I dont. I cant stand in one place for more than like 30 minutes without chronic pain. I cant walk super long distances and probably shouldnt lift super heavy objects. All kinds of docs have tried different shit to fix it but they usually just make me feel worse for a few days.
