Mesh moved?

Before I had my vsg I had 2 abdominal hernias repaired with mesh now that I've lost close to 100 pounds I've been feeling a pinching feeling where the mesh should be. Do you guys think it would be possible for the mesh to move or twist because of the weight loss this never happened before the surgery.

    It would definitely be worth a visit with your doctor to find out if that's possible. It seems like it could happen.

    The mesh should be embedded by now...but you could be feeling scar tissue from it pulling. Either way you should check it out with your doctor.

    Interesting. I have mesh too from 2 hernia repairs. I have only lost 35 so it will be interesting to see what happens.
