TweetWell it's confirmed an inguinal hernia. Have surgery scheduled this Wednesday. He said surgery isn't always a necessity with hernias and you can certainly watch and wait, but with my lifestyle in the gym it will most likely get worse gradually over time. I can feel it when I lift and it aches a lot, so I think it's best for me to just get it fixed.

I'm going to start a log on the surgery and update it as I go through the recovery, so anyone else that may be facing this can at least get an idea of what my experience is. I did the same thing with my gyno surgery a few years ago for anyone that may be going through that as well.
