Panni/hernia repair



Recommended Posts

Scheduled for a double hernia repair and panni on July 18th. Any thoughts on how long I might be sleeping in a recliner? Thinking I won't be laying flat in my bed for a while!

I'm 9 days out from a TT and breast lift. I do not have a recliner and have slept in my bed. I'm normally a stomach sleeper and can finally sleep on my side as of 2 days ago. Not sure this helps but thought I would share.

Thank you for your reply! I am anticipating being very uncomfortable. Are you able to do anything 9 days out?

I'm back to work (work from home) but wouldn't suggest it. Really should have had another week. I went to my sons baseball game last night but probably shouldn't have done that either. I'm moving slowly but just uncomfortable.

I had the panni surgery along with breast lift. I slept in a chair for 4 days per my ps advice and mostly because of the breast lift. Pain wise, well, I didn't have any however with the hernia repair that might be a different story. My advice is to follow the ps advice and take pain pills on schedule.

I will not lie. The hernia repair was harder to recover from than the lower body lift. The hernia repair is deeper. Mine was in my lower abdomen and repaired with mesh. The mesh is anchored to muscle. (I have had 2 c sections, hernia repair and lower body lift.)

It not so much about pain as much about inability to use your core AT ALL. It really is a long recovery so make it mental and you'll be okay. Lots of pillows :)

Please keep us up to date on your recovery. I will be having a hernia and panni in a year. Love to see how your healing progresses.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
