I had a problem of abdominal hernia and umbilical hernia. After much consideration, I decides to do a muscle repair [RS bleep] TT and got it done on Tues, 20 Mar 2012. I am so anxious to recover, but I also don't want to stress my body out. I walked a little a day post op and is able to sit longer periods and walk longer now. The two drains were taken out of my on day 3 post-op. I feel swell and I feel like my pelvic and hips are swollen. I can also feel sensation of water oozing in my central abdomen area. I am worried about seroma. Can't wait for the recovery to be OVER!!! Some times, I wonder if this is all worth it. At least loose skin and muscles can't kill, right? I was already running 7-8km 3-4 times every week and I was enjoying my fit self. I don't think I will get back my fitness again.

Dr has been clear with his instructions so far and quick with his response. He has also been very supportive so far. Just hope he was more empathetic at times.

Stay posative, the old saying "Nothing worth doing is every easy"... You will be fit again and you will be happy..

Thank you! I sure hope so! If not, it's so not worth it. I am just trying to do a bit more everyday and work towards eventual full recovery. I should be taking out some stitches next tues. Hope it all turns out well.

We all go through the "what the heck did I just do to myself" stage in those first few weeks! I promise it gets better! :)
