I am having surgery on Monday for a umbilical hernia, I was wondering if anyone has some helpful advice on how to deal with fibro and surgery. Right now it's a stressor just to think about it. The surgery will be done with a open procedure.
I had the surgery for umbilical hernia about 7 years ago, now another one is back. The surgery is reletively ok, just don't lift or strain for a few weeks, mine was cut around belly button. In my… read more

The fatigue i hate. I have tried sleeping for just 7 hours, 8 hours right upto 17 hours and i still feel groggy when i wake up. I also seem to have vivid dreams, which begin from when i go to sleep… read more
