Medical Question - meford4u - 02-14-2006
Sorry if I spelt it wrong. Hernia that is.
Anyone ever had one? I have been plagued recently with 3 medical marvels in the past week and I have to return to the doc to see what is up with a pain I am having in my lower abdominal region on my left side.
Could this be a hernia?
Hurts mildly but really hurts going up and down stairs.
Oh and the other 2 things. I broke my toe and I have the flu.
I am quickly going downhill.
Who wants my pride and joy when I am gone?

Well it would be polite for your wife to mourn her loss(?) for a while first but sure why not.

What'd ya do, come by and check my 20's out without my permission?! :lol:
Medical Question - french_connection - 02-14-2006
my mom made a hernia and it took her everything to get over it, she still has issues from time to time, I really hope for you its just a sore muscle and not a hernia.
Medical Question - nass - 02-14-2006
I think if you had one you'd know for sure cause I don't think you'd be moving very much. Maybe pulled or tore something?
good luck either way, you're not a hot shot anymore :D
Medical Question - laidman - 02-14-2006
your simptoms sound like you may have one, if that aint it, it might be appendix. OR......... maybe you have to poooop really bad
Medical Question - torradan - 02-14-2006
Appendix is on the other side! :)
I had a hernia when i was little (like 7).. and it felt about the same as you're describing.
The scariest part was well, when you're little, you have stitches *down there*, and the doctor went after them with little scissors to remove them. Scary stuff, having sharp instruments down by your reason to live.
In the end tho, you get to have a really cool scar! Unfortunately, its not one you can brag about with the guys while out having a few beers. Chicks dig scars tho, too bad you're married :)
And damn you guys for snatching up the wife and truck already! Goddamned scavengers!

Lower abdominal? Couldn't it also be ulcers, indigestion or gas?
Medical Question - ANTHONYD - 02-14-2006
Beware.
The last time I went in thinking I had a hernia....I ended up having a colonoscopy.
Turnred out I had an Inflamed bowel.
When was the last time you took a s***? And does it hurt? :lol: I'm serious.
I hernia is usually accompanied by a small bulge below your belly button and to the left. (Lift up a roll, you'll see it)
I'd have it looked at nonetheless. It could just be something stemming from the Flu.

HAHAH classic burn. A++
Medical Question - meford4u - 02-15-2006
Bulge yup
s*** no problem. Just had one or two
Medical Question - NOS2Go4Me - 02-15-2006
If it affects you regardless of position or activity, it's more than likely a hernia. Most muscle pain can be alleviated with a certain rest position or stretching, short of a strain.
Not sure why I'm attempting to help, because you've been such an asswipe lately... perhaps it's because hernias suck.
And yes, weight is decidedly a contributing factor to hernias, especially when your lower abdominal muscles are near non-existant. Your abdominal wall has to take up the slack, golf game be damned.
Hope you get better, and decide to take up a bit of exercise if you're able to after this.
Medical Question - meford4u - 02-15-2006
Doctor said the following today..........
You have a minor muscle strain ( it is almost gone today except when he pressed on it!), AnthonyD needs to get his ass kicked for mentioning my folds, and he thinks Puppet needs a girlfriend.
Oh ya, we were on the net and I showed him all the medical doctors posts from FC.net.
He thought it was a scream.
But thanks for the input.
Bottom line..............I am getting old and need to lose weight.

Good for you, I didn't want to chime in until now because medical diagnosis is best left to doctors :P My dad had a hernia about 12 years ago when his co-worker dropped the bulldozer scoop that they were in the process of unhooking and my dad held on...
That was the first time he was off work due to injury ever took three weeks until he was cleared to return to work (and gave the co-worker a nasty tounge lashing, sometimes its good to be the boss)
