how interesting ...............

luckily i have always loved pork belly. ironic that i don't eat pork now.

now i can research bioactive pig stomach mesh and orthoplex collagen pro.

and interesting article on hernias

link only below

the key to avoiding hernia appears to be good scar tissue.

helping our body heal well is so paramount, any supplements to help maybe immensely valuable in preventing the all to common hernia repair. who wants another trip to the hospital

am aware of earlier fda recall.

hugs to all

pete ( the guinea pig )

    Pete,

    Although women don't seem to have a problem with the
    porcine mesh, there have been reports from males, that it
    makes their "wee-wee" all twisty!

    (Did I mention the "oinking" during sex?)

    Be careful with that.

    sex is one the long long term goals
    hi john.

    twisty indeed, now that would be a side effect!

    sex would be impossible now. but at least i can dream.
    i am on iv antibiotics for the postop infection i hope they work.

    did you ever see the movie "porkies" ?

    it seems relevant.

    thanks pete
