Surgery in Las Vegas someone said online they paid $5000. for a hernia repair.
Avatar m tn This needs to be evaluated by a plastic surgeon or a general surgeon. The extent of the surgery will determine its costs.

Avatar n tn Hello, Repair of the hernia will be done by a gastro surgeon and diastasis of the abdominal wall(tummy tuck operation)will be done by a plastic surgeon. Both are not very complicated procedures but it should be remembered that no surgery even if a minor one is full proof.Complications can arise in any.A partial abdominoplasty (Mini-Tuck Abdominoplasty) can be completed between 1 to 2 hours and a complete abdominoplasty can take 1 to 5 hours.
7196896 tn?1389128561 Hi, the prognosis or recovery after surgery will depend on the extent of fibrosis or scar tissue in the lungs. How was the lung functioning tests prior to surgery? This should improve post surgery. You will have to discuss about this with your treating doctor, as the surgery done will be planned based on the extent of damage to the lungs. Good luck with his surgery and hope he recovers well. Regards.
Avatar f tn He lives in Pakistan where there is no health care insurance. Finding a donor of liver and then the cost of transplant is out of reach of a person. It could be in millions of Rupees and impossible for an ordinary family. Some people say that if hernia explodes inside the body, it will kill the person. Is there any way to contain the Hepatitis C and reduce the bulge of swollen hernia?
Avatar f tn Hello, I used to have extreme pain in the left lower abdomen area (groin area), which was the result of a hernia. I had surgery in July and that took all the pain away. Unfortunately, about two weeks ago, the same exact pain came back. For the past few days, Ive had extreme sharp pain in the same area. I went to the surgeon who fixed my hernia, and she proclaimed that "there is no way the pain is from the hernia".
942162 tn?1245428214 The risks of a diaphragmatic hernia depend on the size of the hernia. If it's large, chances are internal organs will eventually find their way through the hole and become strangulated, leading to emergency surgery to save the pet's life. If it's small, the pet can go its entire life and live a normal number of years and never have a problem with it. I don't know why it would cost thousands of dollars to repair, however.
Avatar m tn I visualize the inguinal canal as a cylindrical passage, starting inside my abdomen, passing downward through the muscles of my lower abdominal wall, and ending at the top of my scrotum. Can someone explain where the mesh was placed in each of my surgeries? My first thoughts were that it was over the open ends, but now I'm not so sure.
Avatar f tn We can't tell you about the test cost in different countries. You can ask your doctor for a type specific IgG blood test. Is there a reason you think you might have herpes? If you don't have symptoms, and haven't had a lot of risk, please really consider if you want to take the test. There are false positives on the type 2 test, and working through that can get very expensive and can take weeks. I'm not sure the testing needed to do that is available in the Philippines.

Avatar m tn In September, I underwent umbilical hernia repair surgery. In the recovery room, during extubation, my airway collapsed and I spent 24 hours in ICU. Approximately three months later, my left hand and arm swelled enormously. A trip to the ER and IV steriods, antibiotics and Zantac started bringing the swelling down (hand and arm returned to normal after a day or so). Two weeks later, I was taken to ER (by ambulance) when my airway swelled shut.
Avatar m tn I contacted Shared Solutions about getting Copaxone in the Philippines several months ago, they provided me this number in Singapore, 65-65090403. Hope this maybe of some help.
Avatar m tn Hello, I'm 29 year old from the Philippines. I'm severely myopic and I use contact lenses and glasses to help me in my work and studies. In November of last year (2009) I went to a retinal specialist to have my eyes checked up because of the floaters that started to annoy me. He diagnosed me with lattice degeneration and PVD, and told me to observe any changes in my vision. These past few days, I started to see some flashes in the corner of my left eye.

Avatar f tn i am in the philippines and the cost for that is very high. is there another way to get pregnant aside from that?
Avatar m tn thank you for the answers . Yes the condom cover the head and 80% of the rest also. The bottom shaft that the condom didnt cover , I never put that inside of her . I was very careful not to put the exposed skin into her . I know HIV is not a risk . I am ashamed of it now honestly . I need self control I think . Well in the end Im happy I used a condom . I wish it was TRojan or something more well known .
1666825 tn?1303252659 I have a history of a lot of heart problems as well as had trouble with a hiatal hernia. I read your post on the Heart medhelp board and know your heart has been checked out and no problems were found with your heart. I can tell you from first hand experience angina and GERD problems from a hiatal hernia can cause a similiar symptom, but in my experience you just know when you are experiencing a heart attack. There is no other experience like it.
Avatar f tn h has cronic hbv, to know if he has no damage he needs to monitor liver damage by fibroscan every 6 months, blood tests cannot say if there is liver damage or not tenofovir+peginterferon have high chances to clear hbv as long as hbeag is positive but you wont find doctors in the philippines to cure hbv, check if kinetix memeber found any doctor in the philippines or if he will move to vietnam or close country to get treatment
