Hi Howie, there's no rush to have this done; but should be performed before the
hernia becomes incarcerated. There's absolutely no way of knowing if or when
that may occur. As far as having it done locally without general anesthesia
would not be a pleasant experience and it's preferable to have it done
laparoscopiclly under general anesthesia. I would simply ask for a different
anesthesiologist if one is available or go to a different physician/clinic.
Hope all is well otherwise...looking forward to seeing you if and when you come
to San Diego. Best Wishes.

Hi again. Really sorry to bother you with this. Actually there is no way to
request another anesthesiologist at this place. When my wife called they said no
way. Now we are without a good option unless we go to the mainland of Japan
which means a few nights for the family at a hotel and kind of a hassle with the
boys. Anyway a couple of questions. I believe four month of inactivity and
bronchitis led to this. For about a week now returned to light farming and began
walking almost a couple hours per day along with light stomach and leg
exercises. A couple of weeks ago could feel my whole stomach shifting. Now the
hernia is barely shifting at all and almost not bulging out. Simply wondering if
through a continuing workout program and weight loss if this would reduce the
chances of incarceration. Also wondering if this could in fact be a non surgical
treatment for this. Again apologies for bothering you again with this. Please
send email when you can. Howie.

Hi Howie, your premises are not correct. Once you have a hernia, you own it.
Again I would recommend the laparoscope technique with general anesthesia. Text
me anytime.
