How long did you wait to repair your hernia?
I've been experiencing some strange pain on my right side and I suspect a hernia (I have a doc appt Monday). I've read lots of posts on the board on hernias and it seems people tend to wait weeks and months to get them repaired. I can't imagine going back to work until I get something done about this pain (right side under ribs; my gallbladder was removed during WLS) It is especially painful after I've been walking or doing activity for an hour or so. When I lay back, the pain goes away. When I am walking etc I feel like my guts are going to fall out. I'm 5 months post op and don't have any noticable bulges or lumps. Any information on your hernia experience would be appreciated.
