Inguinal hernia repair with NO MESH (non-mesh), can you help?

Hello Liam--

Have to tell you that Dr Muschaweck is a terrible surgeon. She operated on my inguinal hernia in Germany in late 2015 and left a total mess--with sexual dysfunction, numbness, pain and later incontinence resulting. I am lucky I am not in a wheelchair after what she did. And I paid a lot for this. Google her name with the word 'Problem" and you will come across a number of references that add up to one bad surgeon. There was even a court case filed against her in the US. That's why she gets you to sign a piece of paper about being sued rather early on in the piece. And that should have raised a few flags in my head but I did not question it at the time. Now I suffer daily from this botched surgery.

I am an Australian (currently living in Sri Lanka), had an inguinal hernia and did a lot of online research and reading.  I chose not to have mesh repair and took a trip to Pune in India to have the Descarda non mesh repair from Dr Descarda.  Have to say, I was fairly nervous about the whole thing and worried I had taken a leap of faith way too far, to go with this technique - which I only knew of from info online.  Anyway, that was now 3 months ago and it all went well.  Was not really painful ever but rather only uncomfortable for some days here and there.  I was walking around in India (street photographing) for many hours at a time only 3 days after surgery and was quite capable (mind you, in retrospect that was probably overdoing it a tad).  I understand that the chance of the hernia returning is almost nil with this technique.  The hospital for the operation was ok - ish (it is India) but the surgery theatre was certainly clean, equipped and modern. Check out the Descarda site online.  I am just posting this in case anyone thinks its not legit.  It certainly is and I am a content customer.   If anyone would like any info about my experience with it all, just let me know.
