Anyone ever had hernia surgery?

[Megalomaniac]

i just had a double groin hernia operation 5 weeks ago, the first week was pure hell, never felt that kinda pain in my life, people had to pull me up off the sofa or chair, im mean it felt like a mule had kicked me down their, doing much better now though, but i do still feel that pulling sensation ur talking about at times. i talked to other people that have had hernias couple yrs ago and can sometime still feel that mesh pull when they strain or try to move real heavy stuff.

I'm trying to be careful but I'm not a good "lay around" person. Thanks for the info, it is reassuring. I haven't had my evaluation yet, how long until I can get back to lifting?(i'm getting fat and loosing muscle with all this EF time)

Didn't that just kick the shit out of me. I am going to have mine done in Oct. and am not looking forward to it. I have to get it done if I want to compete again in a year. I cant' even train abs because of it tearing and getting bigger and bigger almost weekly now. But shit guys thanks for the positive feedback.
