I will be having umbilical hernia repair and hate the thought of THAT incision right smack in the middle of my tummy OUCH- LOL

I also have spinal stenosis and MS with muscles issues with legs.
Not sure which will bother me more LO

Thanks, Jan

Yep...they didn't add any new holes for me. The used the same port holes that they used for my sleeve. Not a big deal at all.

it ws not planned but actually my surgeon did a hernia repair while I was getting my sleeve, no biggie really, there is like a small nick just under where my belly button is but hardly noticable ( not that my stomach is smooth anyways) but  no pain either! No worries it will be fine!

Thanks so much for your responses. I will ask my surgeon when we met next week what HE does to correc this..LOL. I just felt it would be a bigger incision right smack in the middle where you would feel it all!!

Thanks, you put my mind at ease~
