I am 78 and I need abdominal wall repair, umbilical hernia and large diastasis. 24 hour distress. I was landscaping when My tummy ripped inside, and the the umbilical popped and formed a large apron which is unbearable. Instead of helping , my physician gave me remeron and I gained weight. I have lost now, and tummy feels worse, and did not reduce. I am still in shock. My waist went from 36" to 50 " in 3 months and stayed there. I am walking dead, yet in pain.
