No idea what I have still. I’m 100% convinced I tore my hernia repair. I’ve had discomfort in my belly button area, it feels more solid then before. My blood work showed elevated white blood cells and my doc is having me see a hematologist. This seems to track with the fevers and doxycycline. I moved that rider lawn mower, probably made a small tare in my hernia repair, which became inflamed and caused my fevers, the doxycycline stamped out the inflammation, which lessoned my fevers. My discomfort is likely related to this tare. The doctor is also having a ct scan of my abdomen as well. They’re more concerned with the hematology report and its findings but I have a feeling its going to come back normal.
I honestly have no idea. I’m not even sure “tear” is the right way to describe it. I guess the ct scan will tell me for sure. The mesh is supposed to make the area more durable and less likely to reinjure.

Well shit. What’re the options if you did tear it? More surgery?
