Hi everyone. It has been awhile since my last post. I am at home recovering from hernia surgery. I had 4 repaired. one parastoma under my stoma, and 3 incisional I still have 2 one in each groin, but because I was under for 5 1/2 hrs. My surgeon saved those for another time. He repaired the one under my stoma and also made my stoma smaller ( which is good ) It has been over 2 weeks sinse my surgery I was in Hospital for 5 days. I had alot of asheasons and scar tissue that needed to be cleared away. Surgery was laproscopic with Robot assist. the only way to go. But don't let anyone tell you it is not major. I am just now taking it one day at a time and feeling a little less pain as each day go's by. Well thats my storey. The other thing that has helped was my sergeon applied a binder after my surgery. and I am wearing it during the day off at nite.
