2 family doctors & 2 surgeons in 2 different provinces/3 different towns, an operation, x-ray, ct scan, 2 ultra sounds, & an mri later, the hernia was repaired, but now there's a damaged nerve causing the pain.
hernando the invisible hernia has been mostly explained.
i don't know if the nerve was damaged due to prolonged exposure to the hernia, or if something happened in the operating room. if it happened in the OR, well, these are the risks. if it happened because of the hernia, i should have fought for treatment 8 years ago instead of giving up and waiting until it was unbearable.
i have an amazing surgeon on my side. he's laying down all of the information on me that he can. he gave me the option for another operation, told me the risks, and told me to talk to my family & doctor before deciding. his main worry is that they'll go in and remove the scar tissue that's affecting the nerve or repair the damaged nerve, but in the process damage more nerves leaving me in worse pain for life that won't be fixable.
this thought terrifies me and is on my mind constantly. but as it stands right now, i'm not very functional. it hurts to move around & the constant pain is weighing very heavily on my mental health. to be blunt: it's depressing. i don't know what's in store for my future. will i be able to work? what about my photography?
it's getting worse. last saturday night i couldn't take a step without doubling over in pain. the next day i lost mobility in my foot. my big toe dragged, which is a symptom of nerve damage. i could wiggle my toes and lift my foot if i stopped to think about it, but the natural movement of walking just wasn't there. it's better now, but took several days.
this picture was taken on my way to an mri. which, by the way, is not fun. i didn't realize i was THAT claustrophobic. i got through it, though. i found a sticker on the opening of the tube and focused on that & concentrated on the music coming from the headphones they gave me. breath slowly. in. out.
i'd like to thank all of my doctors, dentists, etc who instilled the ability to remove my attention away from the unpleasant thing happening to me when i was a small child and going through all of the procedures required for a cleft pallet. the "stare at a spot on the ceiling & think of something pretty/fun" actually helps.
so the hope with this mri is that it shows loud and clear where the scar tissue is that's gumming up the nerve end. i find out on the 16th of this month.

Officers from Greater Manchester Police's Salford Division are undertaking regular days of action as part of Operation Naseby's disruption hub - formed in April earlier this year to reduce the activity of local organised crime groups.
The public are encouraged, as ever, to speak to high-visibility patrols with any concerns or information they may have with the knowledge that information will be treated with the strictest confidence.
Since the inception of the Operation Naseby disruption hub in April, there have been 126 arrests, 109 vehicles seized and 48 house searches.
GMP have also been working alongside partners in Salford City Council as part of Project Gulf, an initiative dedicated to tackling organised crime in the city with a view to deter reoffending as well as taking down criminal groups.
Detective Inspector Rebecca Mills, of GMP's Salford division, said: "Today is the start of a series of action days across Salford where our officers are increasing their methods of disrupting criminal activity by serious and organised crime groups in the area.
"This is part of our ongoing Operation Naseby disruption programme which has seen some significant advances made in tackling the type of crime that causes such risk and harm to those who are most susceptible in our society to such activity.
"I'd like to reassure the public that the work going on in the commencing weeks is part of this ongoing operation and there is no known risk to the wider public.
"We do urge anyone with information regarding organised crime in Salford to contact police or our high-visibility patrols that operate in our communities - as the greater the information we have available to us, the more successful our work in tackling these groups will be."
Anyone with any information should contact police on 101 quoting Operation Naseby. Details can be passed anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Detectives across Greater Manchester have made six further arrests this morning (13 January) as part of the continued investigation into the criminal use of encrypted communication services.
At around 6am today, officers from GMP's Serious and Organised Crime Group (SOCG) executed five warrants at properties across Cadishead, Worsley and Whitefield.
Four men, aged between 27 and 42, and two women, aged 27 and 30, were arrested on suspicion of a range of offences, including money laundering, conspiracy to supply class A drugs and firearm offences.
Cash, cannabis and high value assets including jewellery and electronic devices were also seized during property searches.
They all remain in custody for questioning by detectives.
Today's action formed part of Operation Goodwin; an investigation into an organised crime group involved in the large scale supply of class A drugs and firearms within Greater Manchester and the UK.
Op Goodwin forms one part of GMP's strand of the National Crime Agency (NCA) led Operation Venetic.
Launched in July 2020 by the NCA, Operation Venetic brought together nearly ever law enforcement agency across the UK, focusing on the takedown of 'Encrochat' - a sophisticated encrypted communications service - often used by organised criminal groups.
Since its inception GMP has launched multiple investigations into the activity of numerous organised criminal groups and this has seen 216 people arrested, with 170 of those charged with a range of drug, money and firearm offences.
Detectives have also been successful in seizing over £2million in cash, numerous high-value assets and multi-kilos of both class A and B drugs.
Detective Inspector, Justin Bryant of GMP's Serious and Organised Crime Group said: "Today's action, arrests and seizures are yet another positive step forward in our continuing commitment to tackle the activity of organised criminal groups across Greater Manchester.
"The takedown of the encrypted Encrochat communication services has allowed us a deeper and more personal insight into the world that these people operate in and since 2020 we've been working tirelessly to decipher messages and identify all those involved in this activity.
"The mammoth operation has seen over 200 arrests made so far and I have no doubt that these figures will continue to rise throughout 2022 as we continue in our fight against this type of criminality, removing those involved from our streets.
"These individuals may feel untouchable, but I hope these figures clearly demonstrate that GMP, alongside the NCA and other law enforcement agencies, will ensure the law soon catches up with them."
A new joint operation - called Operation Vortex - has gotten underway today (Wednesday 19 January 2022) in Oldham to crack down on vehicle crime and traffic offences in the district.
The Tactical Vehicle Intercept Unit, along with officers from GMP's Safer Transport Team and officers across the Oldham District, worked along the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency at a static base in Chadderton, stopping a number of vehicles either committing traffic offences, or vehicle crime.
Two men arrested, one on suspicion of driving while under the influence of drugs, and one for driving while disqualified and remain in custody for questioning, ten vehicles have been seized for being driven with no insurance, and one stolen vehicle has been recovered.
In addition, officers also reported 35 traffic offences for a range of driving offences.
Chief Superintendent Mark Dexter from GMP's Specialist Operations said: "This will become a regular operation across Greater Manchester, where we will strive to make our communities and roads safer, tackling illegal vehicles which we know that are all too often used in crime and cause harm and misery on the roads.
"I hope this sends a strong message to anyone thinking of breaking the law on our roads, that we are watching, and we won't hesitate to take action to remove you and your vehicle from the road."

Fifteen people have been arrested by Greater Manchester Police in raids as part of an operation to target drug dealing in Oldham.
The people were arrested when officers raided 15 addresses just after 6am today, Thursday 21 July 2011.
Officers from Oldham's Neighbourhood Policing Teams launched the operation, codenamed Operation Rescind II, as their response to concerns the community had that drug dealing was a problem and, in turn, increasing crime and antisocial behaviour in the area.
The raids follow on from Operation Rescind, where officers raided 16 addresses in March 2011, which came after months of investigations by officers from the Oldham division and Serious Crime Division into the distribution of heroin and crack cocaine.
In the latest raids this morning, 15 men were arrested on suspicion of drugs offences, including possession with intent to supply class A drugs, after officers executed warrants across the Oldham area. Properties were raided in the Hathershaw, Chadderton, Westwood, Alt, Werneth, Moorside and Ashton-under Lyne areas.
Shotgun ammunition has been recovered from one address and a quantity of cannabis has been recovered from another.
More than 100 officers were involved in the raids and included officers from the Neighbourhood Policing Teams, Serious Crime Division, tactical aid units and dog handlers.
Superintendent Catherine Hankinson, from Greater Manchester Police's Oldham Division, said: "Today shows that the desire to rid our communities of the blight of drugs is continuous and we will go back and keep tackling the issue in the same area as many times as necessary until the problem is dealt with.
"Residents told us that class A drug dealing was a worry to them so we have responded robustly to combat this.
"Drugs wreck lives and the crime associated with them causes misery to the whole community - so we do everything possible to find out who is responsible and put them before the courts.
"These arrests are the culmination of hundreds of hours of work by officers and we have used divisional and force resources to gather the intelligence we needed to take this action. It is not a quick process and we thank the community for their patience while we have been building the strongest case possible."

Today, Wednesday 2 October 2019, saw the conclusion of Operation Protector.
This is has been the policing operation for the Conservative Party Conference.
Chief Superintendent Wasim Chaudhry, Gold Commander in charge of policing during the Conservative Party Conference said:
“Over the past four days, Manchester has played host to the Conservative Party Conference, which saw just over 12,000 delegates visit our city.
“Policing this event presents a complex security and public order operation, requiring a high degree of multiagency partnership working and the highest levels of professionalism.
“As in previous years, there have been elements of protest throughout the conference period – notably on Sunday 29 September when around 13,000 people marched through the city.
“The vast majority of people attending protests did so peacefully and worked with us to ensure they could voice their opinions in a safe manner and with minimal disruption to others.
“On the occasions where individuals crossed the line we have taken positive action. It’s testament to our balanced policing approach that only four people have been arrested during the conference period.
“I want to thank those who live, work in or were visiting Manchester during the conference for their patience while our policing operation was in place.
“Throughout Operation Protector, officers have worked tirelessly to protect delegates, manage protests and keep our city safe.
“I am proud of all our officers and staff. They have performed their duties to the highest of standards and behaved in a professional and fair manner throughout.”
The road march, known as “Dragoon Ride” that 3rd Squadron, 2nd Cavalry Regiment will conduct is the capstone event of their latest participation in Operation Atlantic Resolve (OAR). As part of their OAR mission, the squadron has spent the last few months living and training alongside allied forces in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland. Since Army Europe’s Land Forces OAR mission began in April 2014, it has focused on improving the ability of NATO allies to work and operate together. This road march is a demonstration of that improved ability. It will traverse more than 1,800 kilometers, cross five allied borders, and include the participation of each nation’s armed forces as the convoys travel across each country.
For those participating in it, Dragoon Ride is a unique opportunity. Soldiers and their leaders will have numerous opportunities to engage with local communities along the route and deepen their appreciation for the cultural diversity within the alliance. It will also allow units to test their maintenance and leadership capabilities while simultaneously providing a highly-visible demonstration of our commitment to our NATO allies, and the ability of alliance member-states to work in close cooperation to allow military forces to move freely across allied borders.
After rescuing a VIS deep-cover asset (code name: Sapphire) at a house near the Ligeria-Nagonia border region, Team 7 conducted a follow-on raid at a site where rebels were storing armed drones for an imminent attack. Following a firefight, the four-man team engaged multiple targets and fought their way to secure the objective building.
After conducting SSE, the team destroyed the drones in place and called for extraction. They then moved to a helicopter landing zone (HLZ). Moments later, the roar of rotor blades signaled the arrival of the CV-22 aircraft, which swiftly extracted Sapphire and the team.
The end.

A Royal Australian Air Force F/A-18A ''Hornet'' prepares to depart on a mission to strike a Deash headquarters compound in Mosul, Iraq, from Australia's main air operating base in the Middle East region. *** Local Caption *** The Royal Australian Air Force Air Task Group recently launched a large-scale early morning airstrike on a key Daesh headquarters compound in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.
Under the cover of darkness, a pair of F/A-18A ''Hornet'' fighter aircraft dropped a total of six two-thousand pound penetrating bombs on the target, destroying the building from the inside and causing the large structure to implode on itself. The two-story building set on the edge of a lake was a key Daesh operational headquarters for the city that also functioned as a training facility.
The Air Task Group is operating as part of Operation OKRA at the request of the Iraqi Government within a US-led international coalition assembled to disrupt and degrade Daesh operations in the Middle East Region. The Air Task Group comprises six RAAF F/A-18A ''Hornet'' fighter aircraft, an E-7A ''Wedgetail'' airborne command and control aircraft, and a KC-30A Multi-Role Tanker Transport air-to-air refuelling aircraft. Additionally, Australia has personnel working in the Combined Air and Space Operations Centre and embedded with the US Tactical Command and Control Unit.
The Air Task Group is directly supported by elements of Operation ACCORDION including the Theatre Communications Group, Air Mobility Task Group, and the Combat Support Unit. These groups provide continuous combat support to sustain air operations in the Middle East Region. There are up to 350 personnel deployed at any one time as part of, or in direct support of, the Air Task Group.
