I had a hernia once, small, hurt once in a while. Was so tiny it cleared up on it's own, no surgery, all was okay. I got it from surgery on my pancreas. I remember what my stomach felt like having it but I didn't really have alot of pain with it at the time.

That being said, I was stretched out on the couch, my oldest son said something I turned at my waist and started to yawn. I felt like I got stabbed in the stomach right next to my belly button. Immediate pain, went right away. Thought maybe I twisted wrong and pulled something. No biggie. I yawned again a few minutes agin, same fucking thing on the other side of my belly button. Now my stomach not deep deep but more surface and in the middle of the layers of skin burns a bit. I remember that burning when I had the hernia from the surgery.

Did I give myself another one? Where my belly button is is kind of sunken in and the skin around it harder now.

Doesn't hurt unless I go to stretch over my head or again...yawning.
What the hell did I do?
(And yes I realize we don't really have MD's here, but I'm looking for that "Nah..no biggie" or "Go to the docs Monday" sort of shit...lil insight.)

Go to the doc's on Monday. Seriously, if it's small and you can avoid popping it (them?) out you're not gonna die in the meantime..

I am very sorry for you, go to the hospital or a doc and I wish you a soon recovery from this.

Doc sooner is better than later, Sabby - unless you've already had your appendix out. Better safe than ruptured.

Ahahaha ...i just spit out my coffee.



I would go the doc's too, sabby. If you're not used to that pain, and didn't do anything that would cause soreness there ( like 1000 situps or some crazy new sex position ) ...then i would probably go and have it looked at. As everyone has said - better safe than sorry as you never know if it's your appendix that ruptured and not having that fixed quick can be fatal. ( see my "i watched this guy keel over last night" thread.... )

Hernia's can happen to people of any age. My sister had a bad one when she was like 16 and had to have surgery ...get the kevlar patch installed her to keep her insides in.

Wait it out. Thats what I always do. Im sure one day I will randomly die but I hate going to the doctor so I don't go for shit.

Go to the emergency room. There's other circumstances involved here so it's a bit more complicated.

See that is one of my biggest problems. People who go to the emergency room for everything. People in REAL emergecies need to be seen. So many people die or get worse because of so many people that go to the emergency room for every little thing then everyone has to wait because someone has a belly ache or a stuffy nose.

Im sure she will be fine till tomorrow when she can go to her doctor.

I'd say go to the doctor, just to be sure everything's alright. You know, considering...

Every time someone says something about hernia's it reminds me of that weird al song....

The problem in my gut turned out to be a hernia in my diaphram.

I would say go to the doctor. Like others have said, you know you have a medical history that requires you pay attention to how you are feeling, plus there are enough bad things that could cause you pain and discomfort in your abodomin that you need to be safe.

Did he ask you to kiss it and make it better? If so, it might not have been a hernia at all.

Dude, she's pregnate.

I don't know how the medical system works in Vegas but in Toronto, they treat my most serious injury first; not who got there first. I fail to see how using a service that I pay for is putting someone else at risk.

Whos pregnant?

Look up the article just written last week how some 60 year old lady had a heart attack in the lobby of an emergency room and died and noone noticed while she waited to see a doctor. Now the family is suing the shit out of the hospital. She was marked as none emergency by the triage nurse.

Emergency rooms are for emergencies IMO.

You're pregnant? :confused: :eek:

I wasn't arguing. I was just stating people shouldn't go to the emergency room for every little problem. Especially when they can just wait till the next day and see their doctor.

IF i had 75 freaking posts Id rep you. I work in an ER and the medicaid cases shouldnt even be allowed to walk in the door. Coming in for a freaking sore throat and blocking shit up and costing the govt MILLIONS Of dollars. Ill stop before I really start ranting.

No, he snuck in under cover of night. Slipped me a pint and slinked back to his truck. I guess he misread the note I left.

"More cheese" somehow got translated to "Impregnate me please"

At least my old delivery wagon can still deliver the goods though.

Just to be on the safe side go have an MRI...they might have missed that spear you shot through your head at 9 or something. Hahahaha geesh!

Yeah, I knew a guy who was fixed.
The two kids he had 10yrs after having his ballies done up are ADORABLE!

Sometimes they get through even with the ol snipper.

Well just to be safe and fair we both got cut up. We figured that should seriously drop our chances of one making it through.
