Hi,
I was recently diagnosed with a Hernia (intially inguinal, now Haitus). The last few days I have suffered severe and painful bloating after even a small very meal - e.g. two slices of bread. If I'm lying down wehn this occurs then I sometimes also get palpitations.
I am concerned that this might be signs of constriction, but my GP doesn't think so although he's only done a physical exam, no imaging or other tests. The hernia opp isn't for 8 weeks, I can put up with the discomfort and diet until then but:
a) Should I be concerned enough to go private and get the opperation now or other tests done?
b) Is it ok to fly?
Your advice would be appreciated.
Neil
