Mine was discovered when I had to go to the ER for severe hydration after I ran a half marathon, I thought my band slipped but it didn't. They did the CT scan and once I decided to get my band out my surgeon reviewed my CT scan and decided to remove my band, repair the hernia and sleeve me

Mine was found during the Upper GI I had as part of the pre-op testing. I had symptoms that caused my doctor to order that test for me though as he doesn't always order it.

Mine was discovered in upper GI and I was told it was small . Dr repaired and said it was large. It's made a HUGE impact on my breathing, feeling like working out and sleep! I have asthma too, and so much of what I thought was asthma was that hernia! I hope it doesn't come back! It's been a huge boost to how I feel!!
