Any experienced Hernia patients here?
2 winters ago I popped a hernia while coughing from some bad cold I caught. I believe John did the same thing at the same time. Mean cough. Never had a hernia before so totally ignorant about things.
Anyway , I'm looking to get it fixed in January if possible. My main concern is whether I can get along on my own right after the operation or do I need to do a week in a rehab place between the hospital and being home alone.
Also , what's the best fix now? Straight sew up job or the patch? What are the pro's and con's?
Any hernia operation veterans here with opinions?
