I am mid-cycle (cyp, deca and hgh). I went to my doctor today for a physical and he said I had a hernia!!!
This was the day after leg day, when I was squatting a butt load of iron. I never noticed anythign.
Anyway, my questions is has anyone out there had a hernia? How long did it put you out? Can I do arms, back and chest during recovery? How long does it take to heal?
Any imput is appr4eciated, bros
You supposedly have a hernia, but arent in any pain? What kind of hernia are we talkin here?

Can't really read his writing, but I think it says "inguinal hernia"
i had an Umbilical Hernia. Diddnt hurt all the time got it fixed though.
just had surgery on 10/6 for an Inguinal hernia and a Umbilical hernia. had no pain at all, only knew about the umbilical one, doc found the other, said i had about a 2" hole but during surgery found it to be about 5". as far as lifting you're not going to feel like it as it hurts like a mofo. this is the 6th day after still some pain, get staples out on 10/14, looking at 6 wks recovery, i'll find out about lifting light. i stopped my cycle alot of bros said it thins your blood.
hope this helps you

What do you bros think?
you should be able, i was workin how who know how long till he found it., but i would stop just so you don't make it worse. depending on what you're doing you could start you pct, i thought about the hgh,Quote:

Look in the lounge area, thats where i posted mine. I know everyone is different but i was back in the gym after about 2 1/2wks. 4wks after surgery i was pretty close to 100%. You will be suprised at how many bros had hernia's here, you'll get a lot of support. Good luck fella...Quote:

When you get one, you dont know it except at night either have bad heartburn or else chest pain that would lead you to believe you are having a heart attach (because of herniated muscle aching and its right smack in middle of your chest).Quote:
