Scott,

My 77 year old father had two separate hernias repaired this year (both requiring mesh). His hernias were 40+ years old. He was home same day on both and was out walking in street clothes the day after the second surgery. He recently told me the surgeries were the best thing he had done in a while.

You will do great and be back to work in no time. Best of luck to you.
