Hernia?

[dccarite 92]

Hi all. So my surgery is October 6th. I've been on pre op diet for 5 days. All is going well except I was working out last night and I think i gave myself a hernia. I've had one before and had it repaired. But now i am 99% positive one is poking out since I worked out last night. I'm freaking out thinking what if my doctor won't do surgery now?

I remember in his lecture I had to sit in he stated that hee would still perform a surgery as long as the hernia wasn't in the way of the stomach.

What if it's in the way?!? I will be devastated. Anyone have any experience with hernia and sleeve surgery?!

You need to call them. Perhaps it is something he can repair while he is doing your WLS? Many people here have hernias repaired at the same time - though I am not sure what type of hernias those are versus yours.

@@dccarite I had my hiatal hernia repaired during my vsg. Mine was found during my endoscopy but I am sure it will not be a problem.

I have a hernia and my doctor was very nonchalant about it. He said it was no big and would repair it during surgery.

I had a hernia when I had my surgery and they fixed it while they were in there. He said it would give you manger issues if they didn't.

I was sleeved Oct 6th. But he didn't fix my hernia. He said I have to come back in 9 months to get it fixed. He said my hernia was attached to tissue and was a bigger job than expected so it has to wait.
