confusing.
I have been on ppi for over 20 years for a hiatus hernia ! ( 65 years old male) From all I have found out I would like to come off them, What should I do? 🙏
Good video, TY. Improvement would be to correct the closed captioned/transcript to better understand him, especially the names of the different surgery options which aren't enunciated clearly. TY if you can do this.
The option is the Desarda repair technique of mesh free hernia repair. Look into Dr. Mohan Desarda.
But, this is confusing. Many videos talk about complications that occur within the first year following mesh hernia repair. My Lapro bilateral hernia surgery was fine after 2 months. Then during the third month of recovery, I started getting inflammation in the groin area. It is putting pressure on bladder and prostate, and creating nerve pain in the same place as I had before the surgery. This video doesn’t really account for complications within the first year, I was hoping it would.
It’s plastic. Never allow this in your body.
I'm curious as to why these were only warnings by the fda but no banning of these meds.
Oh how comforting to know! Not.
Such a great video. Thank you for specifying the ph of stomach acid. So many doctors and nutritionists are confused about it. 🎉
Mine has failed and there’s no help for me at all. Crippled physically and now more stressed because I can’t earn much money and know it’s a slippery slope to poverty.
The pp degrades the fastest overtime and is also the most used, then comes polyester in second and each one has its advantages and disadvantages in the first few years.
I called my Dr after having a terrible panic attack from PPI, the jackass told me "Well that shouldn't happen". Most Dr's think they know everything instead of listening to their patients and reading other patients experiences. SMH
Billion dollar law suit now!!!!
Thank you for your honesty doctor.
it seems to me that in this context 'recurrence' is intended to mean "the mesh repair surgery at no point repaired the hernia". this being the case, the failure is not a recurrence since at no point did the repair attempt succeed.
I didn’t hear him saying “mesh” for complications. Just hernia complications.
so you mean one might have what seems like a successful inguinal mesh hernia repair only to have complications starting five years later? may i ask what sort of complications are being referred to in such situations? thanks
They degrade overtime.
@@YourChannelOnKZread does hernia surgery have to be re-done, at some point, if repair with mesh was the previous repair method?
It's buzzes mum from toy stroys

Cool
What is the solution to chronic pain and what is the time frame to decide that it is not going to heal on it's own ? I was told it could take 12months I'm currently at 6mths is it medication or surgery. ?
how bad is the pain and exactly where do you feel it?
My pain didn’t fully stop until about 12 mos. It gradually got better and then I realized it was gone.
@@natasha83196 do you happen to know which type of surgery you had (open, TEP, TAPP)?
@@daktarioskarvannederhosen2568 u still have pain
The mesh did absolutely nothing for me. I'm in a lot of pain and discomfort.
HI MY NAME IS NANCY I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CERVICAL CANCER STAGE 2 B I STOOD 6 MONTHS IN THE HSP AND 6 MONTHS OUT I LOST 4 PINTS OF BLOOD LOST MY HAIR WEIGHT WAS EVEN HOMLESS CAUSE I LOST MY JOB SUFFER AND NEARLY DIED AND THEY TELL ME THEY ARE ONLY PAYING OUT FOR OVARIAN CANCER??? IS IT CANCER IS CANCER??
Get well soon dear🥰🥰
Here's a fun fact: Valsartan used to be called Diovan when it was on patent, Novartis has decades of experience with it and the chemistry to make it. Still working with it in their trusto thingy. Now here's the kicker, sandoz, the generic arm of novartis contracted deep discount synthesis of valsartan over in china where this "contamination" occurred. Please, Novartis has every piece of analytical instrumentation known to man and the experts that know how to use it and they let this get by them? They're trying to pin the blame on the mfg over in china too. What does big pharma spend on R&D? some say only 15%, you know, on things like verifying the purity of compounds they're having made in other countries to "save money". They do things like send all their "scientists" to places like venice italy for a "conference". Do a search for "6 things big pharma doesn't want you to know" by doctors without borders. hope this channel has the courage to not remove this info
Thank you kind doctor. Your little clips on You tube are helping me make the right decision. My inguinal hernia I have been managing for over 16 months now . I get used to the now and again discomfort. It's about as big as a golf ball or larger. The trusses are not so good but i wear them randomly but they slip and the hernia pops out. It's like wearing false teeth for me. Foreign objects inside my body concern me, so I am considering the Shouldice traditional method. On the other hand, I don't really like the idea of anyone cutting me open down there for a range of reasons.. I worry about nerve damage mainly a slip of that scalpel and..??...lots to consider, but mesh is unappealing.
Did you have an operation yet ?
@@jamiehalifax4954 in 2 weeks time I am into hospital for my open hernia op. I have spoken with others and done quite a bit of research. I am going with the mesh after all my assessments. My surgeon can do Shouldice method but strongly advises on the mesh because of the much lower hernia recurrence rate. One part of me wants no op but I am 69 and i struggle with other conditon I have. Fingers crossed. After 2 years of this every day dealing with the bulge and pushing it back in, on and off with 3 different trusses I bought. The associatred discomfort and pain, well, something has to be done hey!
@@nagadorset I had mesh when I had my open operation 7 yrs ago..during operation they found another hernia next to the inguinal one..I believe its called a pantaloon hernia they fixed both with goretex mesh. Lately I've been having a funny feeling under the scar where the old hernia used to pop through..going to family doc tomorrow to get their opinion and maybe imaging..hopefully it's nothing but I was cutting up and lifting alot of heavy firewood the last couple of years.. Take it easy after your operation, you'll feel back to 100% before long but dont over exhert yourself it isnt worth risking it
@@jamiehalifax4954 hey man, thanks so much for this feedback. it means a lot to me :) . I have checked out an old mate who had this same op around 25 years ago. The mesh has given him zero angst. Same with a woman I talked with that I know, who had a huge cancerous tumour removed with mesh used to hold her stomach in place . She has had no issues either with the mesh. You're right about exertion being a problem. Us men find it hard to stop doing what we have always done hey! Again, many many thanks Jamie. You are a champion.
@@jamiehalifax4954 oh yeah, I hope everything works out for You when you get the imaging checked out. Best wishes .
Thank you doctor. I needed to hear this
RIP Sarah.
NHS only offer mesh???
This stuff poisoned me. Its dangerous, dont take avlox or ciprobay, its a nervetoxin
I have been calling my doctors for 9 months now and I keep having a current pain and they said everything should resolve after 6 or 8 weeks and here I am I can't even sit in a chair without experiencing extreme pain and in and I even pushed on my hernia surgery area and it seems like it migrated and I can't even enjoy my life anymore! Please someone help! Help!
Any luck?
Me too exactly the same
Stay strong I know it f****** sucks, I just had my hernia surgery. Keep pressing the doctors man
Go get a second opinion . Don't wait
How are you now ?? x
Nice and every doctor is recommended them left and right.
I took avelox. Started hallucinating after 3 days. 3 days later I can't form proper sentences verbally, control my facial expressions and my head shakes quite a bit. A lot of these doctors just prescribe meds and do nothing to research it. I hope all this passes soon.
Are you better
Are you okay now bro?
How you fee now any updates?
I'm in Australia in 2019 I had mesh in my igneral hernia I now get a dull pain from just under my belly button that shoots down my grion and I get a bloated almost going to vomit type feeling that comes and go's it's hard for me to work as I'm an excavator operator /truck driver it's painful going to work all day I often wonder if I have a bad batch of mesh or it's moved out of it's spot I'm sick of it
not being able to shit
There are too many costs to this drug as well.
This is a bunch of bull- shit they are lying, lm living proof if you wait to long your out of luck, if you have too many surgeries you loose your balls( true) now talk to me wanna be doctor, examine my true self,, l need my own tube channel,.
Scary that this is still prescribed like it's not a problem. Mind you, the current vaccine situation has similar issues
And what happens if a person is taking several medications containing high levels of NDMA?
Higher cancer risk
@@KEYBEATZ NDMA is used to induce tumors in lab animals for study. NDMA is also used to induce pulmonary disease in lab animals. I asked the FDA why medications containing NDMA were only given a voluntary recall. I was told it was because NDMA was never officially studied on humans, only lab animals.
Mfs be prescribing this shit and be like no you're OK, you're fine As a 19 years old who's life is a disaster after this fluoroquinolone shit, I condemn such med.
@@alfredeinstein1742 joints and muscle still pains Goes bad every day
Good job honest
The FDA, IMO, covered up this poisoning by big pharma. I do not believe a word they say nor do I trust them at all. They are basically 'in bed' together. I hope they do not think their money will buy their way out of hell, because it will not.
seriously....there is not one single answer here. Just rambling, stuttering

What’s aneurism?? I’ve been having these weird headaches that makes my head feel like if it’s shaking? I only took cipro for three days and stopped right away. I was suppose to take it for 9days.
What you are experiencing is peripheral neuropathy. A known side-effect of these drugs.
@@beaujules1 thank you for letting me know!
@@beaujules1 is it permanent? I have been suffering from it.
@@gaurabshakya485 Can be permanent. There are people out there who are finding treatments, but I don't know anything about that. Apparently, these drugs foul up the nervous system which can manifest in many different ways.
Sure there’s alternatives out there in the world, mild symptoms of depression can be treated more easier than major ones. However, when depression interferes with your life to the point that you feel there isn’t hope then it’s time to consider the options. Anti depressants have a lot of bias some good some bad, etc. The fact is that we’re all affected differently, trauma, abuse, genes, life hardships, etc so many factors can and do contribute to mental health. If you’re able to fight it on your own, then you’re golden but some people are not so fortunate. Suicide is link to depression, so it’s a serious condition to consider and weigh the pros and cons. Many and I mean many people criticize mental health drugs to include myself and my skepticism but once you experience the realization that you’ve reached a point of no return then it’s time to consider taking a drastic measure to address the issue. Some people self medicate with recreational drugs to cope with life, hell even alcohol and opiates too. But they’re the first ones to speak badly about anti depressants. Go figure!. Nor all of us have the same upbringing or coping mechanisms, as humans most of us are different and unique. Depression is REAl this is a fact! But it’s totally up to you wether to live a life of misery or joy, sure meds don’t have all the answers, but it’s something to consider when you’re left without options.
