      thanks for the reply Sue much appreciated.

      have you found you have to be very careful in what you do afterwards? reason i ask is i was very active in the gym before i got this hernia but find it impossible to even excercise properly since ?

      Hi Bryan, afraid I'm not an exercise person!! However would suggest that you be careful with any abdominal exercise till fully healed and be guided by your doctor and your own body.

      good luck
