Hi ladies
I am really worried about hernia too. I have some pain and lump by my navel which I mentioned to my Oncologist and at the time around 5 months ago, she said its just scar tissue and nothing to worry about. I was very careful after my surgery, not to overdo things ie lifting etc....recently I've noticed that the lump was getting bigger and sometimes it was hard and painful, I had a CT scan because I was also worried I had swelling in my lymph nodes in my neck...so the scan result came back last week and it is showing lymph nodes are slightly swollen and there is a hernia near my navel where the surgery was. I am really worried now that they will have to cut me up again, I had 50 staples when I had my surgery in Dec 2020......the oncologist is referring me to a hernia consultant but said its nothing to worry about and will do another scan in 3 months to check lymph nodes. She also mentioned there is a very tiny nodule on my lung, which is not worrying but will keep an eye. I have been on 600mg Olaparib since March 2021... My bloods are normal CA125 is 11.
I am now anxious about all this. Has anyone else had this issue and gone through surgery to repair the hernia?
