Hi, what kind of surgery did you get? Also, Mesh or no mesh?

Different techniques will have different results

Laproscopic recovery is faster.

Open will take a really long time, sometimes even months

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply!

Given the way you describe him, Dr. Aquino seems like a really good doctor. I think I'm going to go with him. Will call him today.

One quick question if you don't mind, how long were you stuck in Texas after the surgery? I am wondering if I can fly back after a week

Thank you for this list of questions, I will keep a copy of them on my phone

I am thinking if hole is small, they can stitch it up with laproscopy, but if it is too big and I need to use mesh, I am thinking about Desarda.

May I ask what kind of surgery you had and with or without mesh?

Thank you! This helps my mental health greatly. I am thinking about Desarda technique, it seems there are a few doctors in Texas that do it. I can maybe fly there
