Hello, just looking for advice or someone to talk to. In March 2017, I had a hernia repair right under my stoma and it came back again, so I had another operation again in June this year. They did a double layer of mesh, but only 3 months after, it has come back again. Now, they are waiting for a year for my insides to heal before they operate again and they will move my stoma to my left side and repair my right side. Would like to know if anyone has been through this and is there any diet plan you have that I can follow to help this hernia. It has come out so much anyone would think I'm pregnant...lol. I am on a little remote island, so we don't have a dietitian, and I really don't want to get depressed again, so I am trying my best to go with it when I have no pain, which is not so often.
