I have to have incisional hernia repair with mesh on thursday

They are going to reopen my incision from my gastric bypass surgery. I had gastric bypass surgery done Dec 04 2004. I have to incisional hernias. One above my belly button and one at the top of my incision. It is outpatient. How bad is the pain with them reopening the same incision? I have been in bed since sunday night with burning pain.. I am kinda scared knowing they are going to reopen that incision on thursday to repair the hernia with mesh. If you had this done please let me know how you got through it and if yours was patient and outpatient. thanks
