seasprite Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 So tomorrow I go in for a belly button hernia. Surgeon says I should only be off work for 2 weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to do some gun I mean fun stuff while I'm off. So I guess I might be hanging around the forum for a little while and be able to catch up on what Iv'e been missing. Any of you guy's gone through the procedure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seasprite Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Good luck! I haven't but I'm wondering if I've got the start of one..... I felt a strange muscle pull one day when I was doing setups then again at work right on top of my stomach about 2 weeks later I had a mass or bulge showing up around my navel. So keep an eye on the area of concern. Doc told me you can have complications if you put it off to long. Mine been bothering me and with all the heavy lifting I do at work it was a no brainer to get fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Had a right inguinal hernia in Jan '99 - skiing issue, as a Ski Patroller, with a fat guy in my sled. It wasn't until Aug '99 that I got it fixed. I was down for 3 weeks, and couldn't get off the couch during the first week. Once I was down, that's where I stayed. I have no idea how women have c-sections, and head home like everything is normal. Eff that. I got doped up, and I swear the last thing I saw was the Doc standing over me like the guy standing over Mel Gibson in Braveheart, right before he yelled "FREEEEEEEEDOM!!!" :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketch Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 ^^^ yep a room full standing over you before lights out my girl said to say something crazy to the doc before I went under but they hit me pretty hard I couldn't open my mouth and then it was like nothing happend!? (10 screws and metal plate in the ankle) You'll be fine bro but good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sisco Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Good luck with the surgery. Hope your surgeon doesn't have anything in common with a warship. ( A navel destroyer...) My apologies, that is bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seasprite Posted February 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Well I'm back home now had some sleep and now it feels like somebody kicked me as hard as they could in the gut and my shoulders are feeling sore from the gas they used to blow me up. Have three new holes in me now and lots of pain meds. Thanks for the prayers and well wishes guy's it means a lot. Sisco, I liked that but laughing is kinda painful right now <laughs> :eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
