So I go in and am expecting to have a open surgery on the umbilical and laproscopic on the 2 inguinal hernias. Yeah I awoke to the most intense pain I have ever felt in my life. Turns out the inguinal hernias were to big to fix laproscopic. The mesh he put in were 5-6 inches in diameter both. I ended up staying the night on a PCA morphine pump and just got home with Percocet and Tordal in both hands the following pictures are not for the faint of heart

I wish you a complete and speedy recovery! I may be having surgery this summer, and it is helpful to see that you are already healing up and blogging. Good luck and Feel Better!
Ouch! I seriously hope you're wearing a cup around your house! Having someone hit you in the balls wouldn't even be in the same zip code as funny.
Ewwwwwwwwwwwww, I'm a previous psych. staff.....the likes of which can't handle wounds like that. Leave it to you to post your incision site. Oh boy, you are going to itch like a &^%&^%-er. Good luck and hope your toenail heals :)
Love you, Amy
I tried to leave a comment earlier but I guess it didn't take... You are a badass, plain and simple. I hope all is on the up and up- will call soon! Uh- I just wanted to say nice how much you must have impressed the OR staff and docs when they "shaved your junk" because your scars point right to it- like a medical happy trail or something... I don't know- I didn't see, I'm just sayin'...
