After two years we discovered that another type of surgery, with frontal approach, used everywhere except here in Italy grants, usually, excellent result, while the side back approach for a frontal hernia, the one used twice with my mother is much harder. But now the spinal is damaged so, except staminal cell there no hope.
I trust you sued their asses off?
I think they can say it was part of "risks of the surgery" and that you
signed some papers saying that you've been informed about the possible
risks and/or alternative things that could have been done and you accepted them
I had a number of surgeries and every time nobody is going to touch
you and/or do anything on you (unless in an emergency) before you
signed that, once you did "it's all up to you", it's hard to prove that
there's been some uncorrect behaviour and/or that something been
done wrong unless some extremely evident mistake.
Another thing is, you'll never find in Italy a doctor willing/able to
testify againist another doctor's work and say "I state this been
wrongly done", I had friends that unforunatelly passed through some
problems and they came out with almost nothing in their hands.
Justice is quite slow and quite expensive before you get just close
to something you have to spend a huge amount of money.
Unfortunatelly in this cases the thing is quite sad and quite hard
to do/obtain anything
[edit] - unless your dad or some relative is a minister of something or
a PM and/or his name is "Don" something ..
That's all a completely different thing but then probably even the
surgery would have been extremely perfect and you would have done
it somewhere in some other country where the success rate of those
surgeries is around 90% or so.
The inguinal incision took probably about 4-5 weeks to heal properly, though I could walk about (painfully) the next day. The abdominal one took the best part of 3 months to get back to vague normality, and for most of that it was eyewateringly painful. Having an inguinal hernia is very much preferable
