Surgery report

I had a double hernia repaired on Thursday (I'm doing fine). I had hernia surgery in 1986, and that one finally failed, as well as the other side. But this surgery was done arthroscopically, and was the easiest surgery I've ever had. I'm sore and have some swelling, but the whole thing has gone much better than I ever dreamed it would.

Glad you’re better. Don’t forget to use aftershave. :D

Thanks. I'm now able to get in and out of bed, chairs, etc..., and move about. Stopped taking the narcotics yesterday and now have very minimal pain. It's my understanding that the swelling will take a while to go down.

Glad you're doing better...

I've had my share of surgeries in recent years...

January, 2019: Colon resection
April, 2022: Gall bladder removal and hernia repair
December, 2023: Hernia repair again
January, 2024: Hiatal hernia repair
