Title: FFS Not again!
Post by: Amigo on 16 January 2011, 20:27:31
My frickin' hernia has split just at the repair. A tiny lump you could'nt see but i can push it in & it pops out :o when i cough etc!!! No pain but i'll have to see the doctor & be referred again i suppose. ::)
   I would'nt mind but i was a pin cushion last time & i'm more afraid of needles than i am of Anne Widdicombe's front bottom!! >:( :(

Ouch, sounds painful. Hope its nothing too serious, and something that can be quickly sorted  :'(

I've had a hernia for about five years now, quite a large protrusion (but we'll stick with the hernia  ::)).
I wont have it done because almost everyone I spoke to had to have them repaired three or four times before giving up.

Sorry to hear this, Guy. I hope they do a proper job of fixing you this time. ;)

IME the needles thing gets better once you're used to it.

Maybe the 'garage' should have used genuine GM parts, rather than pattern ;D


As to needles, I'm with Amigo all the way on that one  :-[

I hope i don't have to that Steve. If yours is umbilical (as mine is/was?) you can leave them but if they strangulate it's a killer. I don't know if yours ever has but when it does it sticks out, is rock hard & won't push back in (no yellow highlights please children!) You get a crippling pain akin to stitch from the top of your chest to the bit between your bollix &...well you know. If it won't push back in after 20 mins. then phone an ambulance rather' pronto...REALLY.
     Ironically i came close a few times but lie back, relax & apply gentle pressure. When it goes back in the pain switches off like a light as if nothing ever happened.

   Don't be too complacent though. I left it 2 years before doing anything & i'm sure this is just a hiccup..bleedin' hope so!!! Guy. :y

Mine is an inguinal hernia and is way down in my groin. It sometimes 'aches' after I over-exert my self but is generally bearable. My GP has told me to get to A&E if it goes hard or is very painful, but OK so far.

same as mine was about 12 yrs ago, took a lot of webbing to repair it so i was told. whatever that means. couldnt work for 6 months, still gets sore now and then. not a prob yet.

It's not as simple as folk make out. To get the stomach muscles to 'hold', all kinds of webbing or, more recently, steel mesh is used. It can be a problem for life, or it can be no problem once repaired. Rather apt for an omega forum.


I still can't understand how these operations were being mooted as so simple that a nurse could do it. No nurse is taking the knife to me.

I did'nt have the mesh, mine was all keyhole, no pain & home same day. Hope your groin hernia holds out Steve.
   If i need the mesh fitting then i want an Irmscher fitted. same as Beasties mesh grille!

Don't Fook with a hernia! You will only make it worse ;D


Seriouslty  had one done a few years ago and insisted on the traditional method as the mesh way is p*sss poor, no bother since!
