My Mom's Health Challenge:preparing For Surgery For Umbilical Hernia And Fibroid by dosage150(op):
Hello doctors,

My mother has been diagnosed with umbilical hernia. When the pain comes, it is unbearable and makes her very uncomfortable.

At first, we thought it was an ulcer. After trying several medications and home treatments without relief, we took her to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor recommended an ultrasound scan.

After reviewing the scan results, the doctor diagnosed her with an umbilical hernia and scheduled her for surgery to repair it.

She was also diagnosed with fibroids while growing up, but due to financial constraints, she has been managing the condition without treatment. I advised her to inform the doctor about it during her consultation.

After examining her, the doctor said both the hernia and fibroids could be treated in the same surgery.

Her pain comes and goes, so we have advised her to rest while waiting for the surgery.

I have a few questions:

1. The hospital she was diagnosed in is a general hospital, but I am taking her to a University Teaching Hospital for surgery in the coming weeks. Is this a better option or should we consider a private hospital?

2. Will there be any side effects if both the hernia is repaired and the fibroids are removed at the same time or is there anything we should expect as method for the Fibroid surgery is Hysterectomy (uterus being removed)?

Thank you for your contributions.

Thank you so much for asking.

It has not been easy time for me as I am tensed lipsrsealed

The surgery was scheduled for 3rd of April,2025, she has changed into the hospital's robe , everything is ready however her BP was really high (170 plus).

The Anesthesiologist advised against the surgery due to the high blood pressure and we were referred to see a Cardiologist

After seeing the Cardiologist with her ECG results , there were no anomalies.

However her BP drugs was changed by the Doc.

She is currently on diet to eat more of protein, veggies and fruits while reducing intake of starchy foods

On 22nd if the public holiday did not affect, she will see the doctor again , if the BP is stable , then a new date for the surgery will be fixed

It is down to 149 this evening she checked

Good day
We haven't done it since then

It's a Teaching Hospital, so the free date for us was on April 3rd.

You can see the above update so far

Thanks for the encouragement 🙏
