Hernia op & Xmas shopping

[Reggie-rock]

One week to go before I have my second hernia operation this year so while I am recovering will do all my Christmas shopping on line which will help ease the traffic at shopping centres by minus one car.
Sorry for this boring Thread

Hope it goes well

Feel for you, Reggie. I had mine repaired in 1991; the surgeon asked if I had been lifting weights with it and I had to confess that, despite doctors orders, I had kept up with my weight lifting/body building regimen knowing it was going to repaired anyway. Seems a daft thing to do now I am older.
P.S. Don't forget to shave because you really don't want a male nurse, holding your todger in one hand, dry shave you………..not a highlight in my life.

Hope the recuperation goes well. No going up into the attic for Christmas decorations this year. You lucky b*****d.

A little too much information.

Good luck with it mate, make sure you take the proper time out to recover.
I had a Hernia op on the stomach area 4 years ago then a year later had another hernia op done on both sides of my groin. Now have five patches because I kept working with a hernia and made it ten times worse

Good luck. Nice excuse to put your feet up over Christmas. I had mine done years ago and made sure I took care of myself for the first six weeks. No problems since.

Shame about the pain and forgive my flippancy, but what a win. A great excuse for a proper chilled out Christmas for once.

How do I go about getting one of these Hernia things without doing any hard work?

Thanks for all your messages so far.
I have a very physical job loading roll cages of frozen food onto lorry trailers mostly or I am picking frozen food as required, which often means I have lifted a total of around 40 metric tonnes over a 12 hour shift.
I was a Civil Servant but the higher I climbed the promotion ladder the more stress I was under, so gave it up back in the 90s for manual labour.
It seems what ever job I do there is a catch.
