How many have had hernias to repair during surgery? I have a bulge that has come up right below my breast. I had emergency gallbladder removal surgery a few years back and I am pretty sure its a Hernia atleast I hope it is. I was just wondering if anyone else has had one too before surgery.

Yep.  I had terrible reflux and the doctor suspected I had one.  He had to really search for it, but repaired a hiatel hernia.  No more reflux!!!!!

I had two hernia repairs during my surgery on the 12th. One was a rare birth defect I never knew I had until they saw a shadow in my chest after a ct scan and the other was a hiatal hernia repair. Hope everything works out for you and they fix your hernia all at once, its so much easier :) good luck
