Hey Bill. Just be glad you could have the surgery done. :-) I had a
hernia about 12-13 years ago and didn't have health insurance at the
time. The company I worked for (IBM) decided to take me on as a full-
time employee with benefits after I'd already suffered with the hernia
a while. I scheduled surgery for the DAY AFTER my benefits kicked
in. I still remember when I initially went to the doctor to get them
to look at it, the doctor asked me what was wrong. I said something
like "I have a hernia here in my bladder area that's gonna need
surgery." He chuckled and said "Oh, I'll be the judge of that.
Remove your pants so I can look." I dropped my pants and as soon as
he SAW it he stuttered a little and told me to pull my pants back up
and that he'd recommend me for surgery immediately. He never had to
lay a finger on me. I'd been "dealing with it" for over a year and it
had gotten pretty nasty. *shudder* I should have taken pictures.
Or... not. Nobody wants to see that. :-) Bill, while you're
recovering be sure you do whatever you have to do to NOT SNEEZE. Or
cough. But especially sneeze.
