I wanted it fixed before, but the doctor who did the original wanted me to get an ultrasound at the hospital (way more money) and jump through other hoops. Basically he didn't want to admit if he didn't get it right in the first place (which he may have not or it was a double hernia which isn't his fault). So I saw a new doctor and have to pay my co-pay again, but better to get it fixed. And yes my body will have more time to recover and more time to figure out what I want to do. And this is an elective surgery which seems scarier to me. So I will be patient and let my body heal before making my final decision!Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-11824255023698708382016-02-11T10:25:42.799-08:002016-02-11T10:25:42.799-08:00Definitely the right decision to fix your hernia a...Definitely the right decision to fix your hernia as that could cause serious health problems if you don't. I'm glad you're waiting on the boobs too, it will give your body more time to heal from pregnancy and birth. This is important so you can see how much your boobs are going to change on their own in that time. And also because that's a major surgery that will be hard on your body, something that should be considered for a long time before acting, in my opinion. Take care and be patient with your body. :) love and hugsMelanie Rickmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14209749176540186368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-92149625988667107262016-02-11T08:47:03.603-08:002016-02-11T08:47:03.603-08:00Thank you so much.

I don't want the pain anymore and the fact that the doctor who originally did it wouldn't fix it (didn't want to admit his failure or that it was a double) and just wanted me to get ultrasounds and jump through hoops makes me mad. All three plastic surgeons noticed it right away and checked it out.Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-51297772847039271612016-02-10T16:49:35.008-08:002016-02-10T16:49:35.008-08:00Wow!

And after pregnancy, it never went back in at all. And it hurt a lot, so it was repaired, but either I have a double one (one in the tube part too) or it didn't take. I would get it checked out. Only because they said organs can push through and that scared me. You don't want to be working out or pull something and it gets really bad. I just had my general doctor check it out and then was recommended to a surgeon.Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-62967502179883905502016-02-10T11:52:18.193-08:002016-02-10T11:52:18.193-08:00Coming from a medical billing consultant, I defini...Coming from a medical billing consultant, I definitely think dealing with the hernia first while you're still covered on this plan is the best option for now.

I'm pretty sure that's what I have but I've never officially been diagnosed. I used to have a pretty little innie and now mine sticks out. It also hurts every now and then as well and it hurt really bad when I was preggo. I should probably get it checked out at my next appointment!
