Good morning Patricia 30. I also had abdominal wall reconstruction surgery. One year post liver transplant a small golf ball sized lump appeared. I was told it was a hernia and required surgery. It took a year to get the surgery and by then my entire surgical site had ripped open. I also was left with a rather large "lump" just to the side of my incision site. Both my family Dr and the surgeon told me it was excess skin, as I had lost quite a bit of weight. I was very worried another hernia had developed but they assured me it wasn't. I do pilates 3x per week and find the lying on my stomach the hardest. Keep going it will get better. 🤗
