@kltchrmn, I want to share a discussion with you where you will be able to meet another member (@hogan_g1937) who has discussed preliver transplant/hernia experience.

Yes, waiting can seem endless. Sending you a virtual hug. I care, and I am rooting for you.

@kitchrmn I am so sorry you have to wait so long before you can get the hernia fixed. I was in that position needing a knee replacement. I was scheduled to have it before I had the cirrhosis diagnosis but on the day of surgery my platelets were too low so the doctor, understandably, would not do it. I had to wait until after my liver transplant. They would have let me have it done 6 months after surgery but I was just not ready for another surgery and hospital stay so I ended up waiting until a year after my transplant.
Fortunately for me, exercise helped my knee to feel better so I was less miserable. I presume there is nothing they can do to provide help for a hernia. I hope it won't be too bothersome while you wait for when it can be done.
