Remember the Days of (Insert Comic Title and Issue # here) Clubs?21952

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
At one point they took up almost the entire front page. Well this is something different.

Who wants to join the CBCS Hernia Club? (Please no photos) I became a member today and meet with a surgeon to discuss options on Wednesday. Getting old sucks.

I had hernia surgery when I was 8. My brother was 10. We shared a hospital room.

I think they said we were born with it. Or it was genetic in some way. As we both had it and were kids.

I believe we had it on both sides too, but they only need to repair one side. The other took care of itself.


So not always an old man gets it.

I’ve been a member for over 40 years now….top that!!

The hernia club?!? Well heck, I had hernia repair surgery as an infant in 1961. Sadly though it was before the internet epoch so it probably doesn't count.

I think I'd rather be part of the (Insert Comic Title and Issue # here) Club instead.

@flanders - That sucks! Heal fast and hopefully avoid other clubs of this type. I joined the ruptured disc/back surgery club a few months ago, and from my experience, it’s a pretty crappy club.

Was it a result of getting rear-ended?

I'm a member too. It's not bad enough to have surgery...yet. I think I got it from picking up all those heavy long boxes when I moved. Short boxes are much easier

Maybe. I'll have to ask the surgeon what they think.

43.5

I'm surprised to see so many members even though it's a very common condition.

Probably just an annual physical.

inguinal or back? I had a right inguinal in 2020 (fixed) and got a left inguinal in 2021 (or 22) but hasn't been bad.

@GIJFan123 I've got a left inguinal hernia. 3-4 months before surgery. I was hoping to get it over with sooner but there's no pain.

@flanders the one I got 2020 was bad. Needed a brace to keep it in place. Moving my factory to my garage didn't add to it. Was very glad when elective surgeries were lifted. The one from 2022, I get a twinge every now and then, but not terrible
