I just had hernia surgery on June12th. 2 days later I had to have surgery for a leaking intestine. The Dr told me I would be able to go back to work the following week from the hernia surgey. Well, after the leaking intestine, I had to take the full 6 weeks off. Just came back to work last week, I am still hurting a sore. It was horrible. Can't really tell you what just the hernia surgery would have been, but I really don't think it would have been that bad. Just the surgery for the leaking intestine was the bad one. Good luck to you.

I had Lap. Hernia repair a few years ago. It was an umbilical hernia. The surgery was one of the easiest I've ever had. Very little discomfort...no pain. Was back at work in 2 weeks. The biggest issue was no lifting for 6 weeks.

I had lapband, hernia repair and a tubal ligation all at once. I was more concerned about the tubal than anything and it was the easiest part of my surgery. I am 3 and a half weeks post op and still quite miserable between the port and the hernia repair. (not sure which one is causing the most pain). I am really discouraged because I haven't been able to exercise at all - even less than normal - and I have not lost any weight. Anyone have an suggestions??
