Yes it is very common, I had 1 hernia time of surgery then developed one 4 months later when I started losing a lot of weight... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GradyCat 3,695 Posted March 20, 2019 Yes it's very common for them to find them and repair them during surgery. I had a small hiatal hernia they repaired with mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaleCruse 756 Posted March 20, 2019 It's not a guarantee that you'll have a hernia. I didn't & I know lots of patients who didn't either. It depends. Good luck! You are not alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
