Bill........Bill..........Bill

Did I Not tell you no sneezing...coughing.....hiccups....ect.ect.ect.


It is hard to believe that you had a blow out with mesh...even if he did a poor job of stitching the mesh in on both sides.

It may be just a small blood vein that popped and is causing the swelling....You might as well push on it....cause he darn sure is

I sure everything the doctor does is under warranty......until you leave the place where he did the surgery

One GOOD thing...is....you will know what exactly to expect.... after surgery.

Oh...Good luck...I hope it is nothing to worry about

Morning Mike and Bill. Good luck with the doctor's appointment today Bill. Hopefully you don't have to go under the knife again. I would be surprised too if you blew out the mesh. I have heard a lot of docs say that you can't rip through that stuff if you tried. Then again, maybe it isn't built to ReBilld Specs, lol.

I'm glad to hear you're able to get back to doing what you enjoy to some extent. Sorry to hear you're on limited hours at work. It's not fun with things being tight. Shoot, my finances are tighter than a frog's butt right now too, so I know how you feel. I'm about ready to sell something just so I have two nickels to rub together. It's frustrating busting your butt and having things still be so tight.

Thanks bud. I had some money saved up and that's what I used on this build. Had to do some stuff along the way to make a few extra bucks to get it done the way I wanted to, but I think I have everything I need now unless I run into a problem building the IC pipes or down pipe. Hopefully I can get it back together soon and I can start doing some stuff to make some extra money to supplement the loss of hours. It is what it is and there is only so much we can do about it right LOL!
