Disregard, last post. See it is still active. I am 1 yr. post Liver Transplant and now facing another related surgery. It is called a Hernia, for the lack of a better word. I have to have a complete Abdominal Wall Reconstruction. For months my pain was chalked up to nerve damage. Many tests were done and repeated to no avail. Now I look like I am pregnant, but only on my right side. Due to pain and lack of any exercise, I have gained roughly 40 lbs. Now, I have to lose 30lbs for surgery. Hernia Dr., said he can’t perform surgery and referred me to Trauma Surgeon who will operate with a plastic surgeon. Long operation and recovery ahead. Posting to alert others of symptoms and also looking for feedback.
