surgery and two weeks later, back to work

But you have something different

I had an inguinal as well.

Laproscopic surgery, worst part was the gas pains.

I was back at the desk on Monday (Surgery on a Thursday) but wasn't back to normal for about 2 weeks. Still had weight restrictions (carrying stuff) for about a month.

I like your sense of humor. The long gas passing video was funny:USA

had a double inguinal - surgeon I had,he was an old school guy.told me not to have it done laproscopic,due to the work I do,and my life style.had it done "open".lots of staples...3 days later,had a job that had to be done.sold a client's boat.needed to load the boat onto the trailer - then unload/block in front of the shop - paint bottom,service motor/systems and sea trail.carrying cinder blocks wasn't the smartest move I ever made...but...I got the job done,sea trialed it the next day.went to the surgeon,had staples removed - he asked me if I was working - I told him the truth,then i told him,i was tuna fishing that week end...

tore up a few things,down there...surgeon was pretty cheezed off i ruined his 25yr,"no return" record...

next time,i took it easy...gave it 2 weeks to heal - that was 5yrs ago...

Had the right side inguinal repair done with mesh and staples a couple of years ago. No problems.
Had the left side done last Friday, so far so good. Will start cutting out or back on the vicodin tomorrow.

That's what she said

I had surgery to repair an inguinal hernia a couple years back. All went well with the repair and recovery until I developed a hydrocele (turn off images before you google that). Fixing that was 100x worse than the hernia surgery.
