BooBoo Spot

Hubby had mentioned a few months ago that after working out at the gym on the equipment he felt really nauseated.  I didn't really think much about it at the time.  I just thought he did too much.

This week he mentioned again how nauseated he felt after working out.  This time something went click.  Hernia.

We pushed and poked around on his belly.  Sure enough, he has a spot above his belly button, where the biggest incision from the gallbladder removal is, where he is tender and it kind of pooches out a little bit.  

We went to the doc yesterday for an actual professional opinion and he concurred.  Hernia.  He said the losing of the weight would help it, and didn't know if it required surgical repair.  So Hubby has to see a surgeon.

My Lap Band doc does general surgery as well, so Hubby is going to see him.  I told him he should get doc to slap on a Lap Band while he was in there.

Hubby said he is not willing to give up spicy food.  He likes his mother's canned Red Chili Sauce too much.
