I'm glad you're on the road to recovery one thing to keep in mind some recoveries are kinda like the Beartooth Pass with a few twists and turns just don't let it get you down !
After my second hernia surgery I'm feeling so much better I'm really glad I took it very easy the first two weeks then gradually increased my activities .
When you feel a cough or sneeze on the way either hold your stomach with a free hand or hug a pillow if possible this really helps as does vitamin E oil rubbed into the incisions to make the scares look and feel better.
Ya know now that your not going #2 this confirms it that your full of crap ha ha sorry I just had to !
You're in my prayers for a fast and complete recovery !

Mine went bad, the mesh pulled loose on 1 side and got on the nerve going to my gonad...
Fit comp for 16 months, finally went to another surgeon and had to redo it. Lost my right gonad
But finally got in some releaf. It's been 10 years and still hurt some everyday but nothing like the
16 months of extreme pain I was in. Second surgeon said the mesh had made the nerve look like
hamburger .

TD....I had the same problem after my surgery several years ago. On day 3 I finally went to the grocery store & bought some ExLax. Just before I took it...Mother Nature 'happened'. Didn't need the ExLax so I took it back.

I just made a week since my double hernia operation. I have taken easy untill today. No problems. Not as I thought it was going to be after listening to all of you. Urinating after surgery was the worst.
so far going ok , good thing we get the old western tv channel

Take an antihistamine to avoid sneezing. What I did after my colon and hernia surgeries. Works.
Charge kids .25 to see your scar.
