So it seems ive got an abdominal hernia. Going in for another check-up with a surgeon tomorrow morning. Had it for some 2 years now, but lately its been hurting constantly so i have to get it fixed soon.

Can't wait for the surgery really, hoping to alleviate some of the pain as soon as possible, i've now also started to have trouble climbing down stairs and even generally standing.

The joy..

It will take a few weeks but you'll be fine. Just be careful the first 2-3 days.

But mine was a little bigger than usual I guess. Took me a month to get on my bike again ... Sad

That sucks :\

I thought I had femoral hernia, but turned out to be inflamed lymph node (at that point I wished it was hernia xD). Got the checkup, not cancer (\o/), so now I wait.

The waiting sucks.

Luckily for you you'll get that fixed, and in no time you'll be as good as new Very Happy

Hernias be damned :S
I'm also part of the crew, with two herniated disks that can't be fixed (every doctor punctually advises against surgery, even if I insist), so I'm forced to live with them which is quite painful at times. I still can do sports regularly despite everything, so it's not too terrible, just annoying.

The abdominal ones should be relatively easy to treat, so that's the bright side of it. Razz Good luck Rage!

Health care here is a fucking joke. I've got to wait two more weeks, without medical leave for the surgeon to see me. Meanwhile i'm losing the ability to stand so working is mostly a pain.


I am feeling pretty special though, as the type of hernia i've got is part of 0.12% of all abdominal hernias, and to make it even more rare, it's on the left side, when even that 0.12% is usually located on the right side. Should be fun since i doubt any doctor in Romania has ever seen it's like before.
