I'm done riding for awhile. I have had a hernia for a few weeks now and was trying to wait till winter to have it repaired. It started hurting to badly. I went to the Dr last week and he sent me to a surgeon immediatly but with work comp that didn't happen right away. Today I finally got to see the surgeon, I was expectling to schedule a surgery next week. He put me on a no physical labor and I am going in for surgery first thing Thursday morning, I thougth it would be tomarrow monring but he at least waited that long.
He said I'm lucky I haven't been in for emergency surgery as bad as it is.

I hope everything goes okay for you. At least work comp is picking up the tab,.. thats the only way to get hurt anymore, is at work. Usually its 100% free and your taken care.

Actually where I work its better to use sick leave for major stuff like this. I didn't find that out till it was to late. Oh well better to be honest about it.
We are getting ready to leave for surgery. I'll report back in a couple days.

Holy crap this is severe pain! I have 7-8 inch cut with 13 staples on the outside. He said they cut me about 2.5 inches deep and I have a few layers of stiches inside.
Hernia surgery is so painful I can't even feel any pain from the vasectomy.
