Please google, "hernia mesh lawsuit" to get an idea of what problems people are having with these hernia mesh surgeries.

My partner had a mesh inserted due to naval hernia and it took about a year before he was without pain. He does blame the surgeon who didn't forewarn him about the after effects.Replied by Amy s (Florida ) on 10/13/2021
My dad (78) developed an autoimmune disorder within a month of the hernia surgery- mesh was used. He now has polymyalgia rheumatica. He has never had any health issues at all or injuries until the hernia. The only thing that makes sense is that his body is rejecting the mesh in some way- causing this response. He has been in terrible full body pain, stopped eating, felt horrible. He just started a course of prednisone.
