Has anyone had surgery to repair hiatal hernia?

Yes Nissen Fundiplication during Covid felt wonderful afterwards as I was careful and newly retired. But the 7 centimeter hiatal hernia returned when I became less cautious, and I'm ready but anxious for another surgery at 70.

@618wild - hi, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Sorry to hear the hernia returned. How frustrating.

Have you approached your primary care or your GI surgeon about another surgery for the hernia? If so, were they open to it?
