Hi -

I had successful gastro bypass surgery last August (jejeunostomy?) but developed a large incisional hernia. I will have hernia repair (mesh, Stoppa- Rive method) on 9/17. What can I expect in terms of success and recuperation?

Hi Harry. I had an incisional hernia repaired about 5 years ago. Very quick procedure. About 15 min on the OR table. It was just day surgery. Had to watch the heavy lifting for a couple months. Nothing really stands out in my mind.
