I have been putting mine off for over a year, if I pull a long underground service in I hurt for a few days after, doc said if I double up in pain get to hospital ASAP as I could end up with a C-bag if I waited. I am going to have to find the time to get it done though, maybe next winter

I just went through this past November.
It's day surgery, but in my opinion, they should keep you in the hospital 1 or 2 days!
They put you under for the surgery, so you don't feel a thing!
The 1st few days it was pretty painfull, and I stayed in a recling chair for those 2 days.
They make 3 small cuts and put in a peice of screen mesh that your stomach lining will grow to.
Expect to take it easy for 6 weeks.
Worst thing was finding out that they had put a cathider in (and they removed it before I woke up) and they don't let you leave the hospital till you pee. OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is the cathider always necessary with this procedure? They knock ya out 1st? So i cant work out for 6 weeks? Guess its better then the TC , i thought it may have been. |

Not yanking any chain here.
They told me no food or drink from 12:00 midnight the night before, and I made sure I had nothing fron about 9:00 the night before.
I didn't know they put the cathider in untill it was time to pee, ouch!!!
I yelled at the nurse afterward, she told me they put one in just in case. |
