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.
