Do ask your surgeon. With the hernia risk fun might come with a price:(

I heard one doctor say "wait at least until you leave the hospital."

Cathy, I did not take that advice. I guess I was so relieved to be alive that it was a wonderful way to celebrate.

Dang....I had surgery June 23 and am still waiting!! I had special tension sutures with bridges (see my profile) until the end of August. Couldn't do anything with them in. Wouldn't ya know the Saturday before I was scheduled to have them out my husband fell off a ladder and broke 4 ribs! Now that I am ready and willing ..... we have to wait for him to heal up! Guess it's my turn for the cold showers!!
