I have had a pain in my stomach and haven't been eating or drinking much for five days so I came to the hospital yesterday. After 12 hours of test and seeing different doctors, they confirmed that i have a hernia, admitted me and I'll likely be having surgery today. I'll post an update later.

Smart decision to go to the hospital, DebbieML -- I trust your surgery to repair the hernia will go well and that you'll be home, relatively pain free, soon.

Best of luck Debbie!    and wishes for a speedy recovery on this.   I already know I have an umbilical hernia that will need to be repaired down the road but surgeon said wait until I was closer to goal and then the repair would adhere better.     I truly hope the hernia can wait for me!   Good instincts going to the hospital!
