So once again, the adventure continues. As expected, my hernia reoccured. I am scheduled for surgery on 2/22 and will probably be in the hospital for about 5 days.
You might recall I had a hernia surgery, the installed mesh became infected requiring surgery to remove and no mesh was put back in. That's why the hernia was expected to reoccur. This time the surgeon will put in a biologic mesh, which is not as ideal as the artificial. The artificial lasts till you croak while the biologic will be absorbed by the body.
