hernia surgery in ontario

I have consulted my doctor 1 month before due to the severe pain and pressure on the right side of my waistline above my groin and he said me it is because of hernia and suggested me to consult a specialist at Shouldice Hospital, Ontario. As it was my wife's delivery time, I was not able to do it then and thinking to go there next week. What are your suggestions?

I have been to the doctor and he said me it is because of hernia and sent me to a hernia surgeon, but he says it is not hernia. I am really confused and frustrated. I need to get into contact with a Hernia Health centre to get more information on Hernia and to diagnose mine. Heard good review about Shouldice Hospital Ontario. What you guys suggest for me?

Yes, I think a hernia can go into the scrotum. Hernia pain can also come and go. https://www.urologyhealth.

Most of the tubal reversal clinics I see are in the States. I think here in Ontario we need to go thru a regular OB/GYN. the dr that did them would be your best bet here in Ontario. Here its a lot more money, 6000-10,000. I saw this one place Chapel Hill in NC that looked interesting. I had my TL done 7 months ago during the birth and c-section of my 4th baby. Lately I've had some regret. I am 39 yrs old and have 4 beautiful and healthy children.

Hello and hope you are doing well. The common causes for testicular pain are injury, infection and torsion. Injury can cause a tear of the testicular layers or it can cause a hematoma (blood collection). Infection can affect and cause epididymitis or orchitis resulting in pain. Testicular torsion is an emergency as the blood supply may be compromised and needs to be relieved. Sometimes a tumor of the testis can cause pain. Consult your primary care physician for therapy.

My Gynecologist thinks I have a hernia. I have a CT scheduled for Friday and a follow up on Tuesday to discuss results and the plan. It's looking like, either way, I'm having another surgery. If it's not a hernia and nothing else alarming shows up, they will assume it's scar tissue and likely to a laparscopy to look for and break up scar tissue/adhesions. Anyone out there have a hernia after surgery?

The CABG area should be located in the area of your sternum. In my opinion, this hernia has nothing to do with the surgery or your car accident.

ve been told their is little point in having surgery again yet - as Im still carrying my child a lot. What exercises can I do to help maybe close the gap? I am fairly active and have recently started a bit of yoga again, but Im conscious of maybe doing more harm than good.

Anyway my question is has anyone had a surgery other than the nissen fundo to repair the hernia. I am interested in having mine fixed but do NOT want my stomach wrapped around my esophagus. I'd like for a surgeon to just go in and pull the stomach to its proper position and sew up the hole in the diaphram essentially returning everything to its natural order.

Knowing this now, does not yet change the fact I have trouble eating as anything causes great discomfort and of course the hernia to pop out. I am told the surgery to too major (!!??) Well then...what do I do now? Oh dear.

HI, I had a ct and MRI and it showed the bowel is in the hernia. I have had diarrhea after meals at different times and question if this is the cause of the diarrhea. I have no pain and no vomiting and appetite very good. ALso would surgery stop this diarrhea.

My husband had the surgery many years ago and he did just fine. You will have to take it easy for awhile though. Depending on how extensive the hernia is, I would'nt be too surprised if they do the surgery out patient. Of course you'll receive pains meds and the Dr will send you home with a script for pain meds.

I had laparoscopic surgery to repair an inguinal hernia. After 4 months, the hernia returned, and so I had a second repair surgery by incision. Now, 10 months after the second operation, I'm having some odd "tearing" pains and tenderness under the incision site, and down toward my groin. I'm trying to understand the geometry of the two repairs.

Has anyone gotten the bubbly gurgling feeling in their stomach after eating or drinking anything? I'm wondering what is causing this. I already have plans to have my gb removed due to stones, but I am asking because the surgeon and other docs feel there is something more going on, as my labs and symptoms/location of pain seem to indicate. Pancreas is likely involved and I do have a hiatal hernia. White blood cells & pancreatic enzymes are elevated.

Hi and welcome to the chiari forum. I am not familiar if there is a chiari specialist in Canada that treats chiari 0......not too many here in the states either. U can send copies of ur MRI's to a chiari specialist for review...many will do this for a minimal fee.Once u have a dx and know for a fact there is not a NS in ur country, then ur health system may allow ur coming to a NS here..... Glad to have u join our little family here, sorry the reason u had to seek us out.

Have been on Plavix for 13 months and find I need Hernia surgery now as I am having having many problems due to the Hernia. What is the possibility of having surgery? If I have surgery is the Plavix stopped for a number of days and then resumed?

Any every have a hernia while pregnant? I was complaining the baby's head was so low it was hurting - saw my dr today & it turns out it's a hernia! Grrr- at least baby sounds great (got to hear her hiccups on doplar!). Guess I'll goggle hernias until my surgery consult in 2 weeks.

Hi Jenny, I have a hiatal hernia, but do not require surgery...I have known about my hernia since I was in my teens. I had a few flares that required meds...but, with proper diet and lifestyle I am able to keep it under control without meds. I just got my self off meds after being on them 2 yrs....I had flares from 3 diff surgeries....the meds they use to put u under alone can upset a balanced system.

Im located in london ontario and I would love to know if anyone has had a reversed tubal and where they had it along with costs and any other info or tips that might help. Please lemme know!thanks!

The doctor examined me and found a groin hernia and I'm scheduled for surgery in sept. I think I want laproscopic but am I going to end up with permanent pain? will the mesh or non-tension method fail to stop the hernia from progressing? I think it's from the gym or coughing from this tracheotomy I'm getting this crippling nausea sometimes and sometimes protonix helps. is it from the hernia or diabetes or GERD? thanks!

Yes. The surgery for a hiatal hernia is the Nissen Fundaplication, where a portion of the fundus is wrapped around the esophagus in the area of the lower esophageal sphincter. As for the type, 90% of all hiatal hernias are sliding hernias, not paraesophageal, so it's probably a sliding hiatal hernia that you have.

Have had several scopes and have very red and inflammed vocal chords, hiatal hernia along with severe acid reflux. I am looking at having the hiatal hernia repaired in hopes it will calm the cough down. I am currently on Nexium 2x/daily, Plaquinel, armour thyroid, vit d, and Evista. Does anyone know if this type surgery would relieve this? We have ruled out Sarcoidosis and anything thyroid related (antibodies, etc) w/ CT and x-rays of chest and tyroid antibody test.

I have already planned the surgery to fix the hernia for next week . 2 days ago I had an ultrasound which showed that I have gallbladder sludge and maybe some very small stones . I never had any pains in the stomach and the only thing that might be a symptoms is some digestive problems . The doctor advised that since I am going to surgery for the hernia I should proceed with the removal of the gallbladder .

My doctor suspects I have a hernia, a complication from having a large cyst, ovary and tube removed in May. I will need surgery to repair. Anyone else experience this? I'd appreciate your experiences and thoughts on recovery time, when I can return to work (I'm a preschool teacher), length of surgery, etc. Thanks!
