The surgery was straightforward and had I been in theatre earlier I would have been home the same day, as it was I stayed overnight. Unfortunately I got a wound infection which knocked me back a bit and since then the hernia has recurred, obviously too much leaping of tall buildings. At the moment I have no plans to get it fixed again, it is not bothering me (I think the mesh is still holding it partly in) and I've had enough of hospitals and operating rooms for a while. Obviously this might change in the future. Clark.
