    both at the same time, i have the same, waiting an NHS phone call to discuss surgical options.

    yes they do both at the same time, either an open procedure, can be local anaesthetic or Laporoscopic which is an general anaesthetic if the NHS don't sort it may go private london or oxford do £2950 fuxed price or my health cover in 6 months

    pain is uncomfortable but not severe, but worried it could get worse, as they do.

    good luck
