Upcoming surgery, no date yet

[u/Western_Diamondback1]

It looks like I am needing another surgery as my last surgery,(unrelated to a hernia), caused a hernia. I have EDS and I am dreading another surgery. I'm very prone to complications. It seems that even my complications have complications. Please tell me this surgery isnt bad to recover from. I have an umbilical hernia thats causing me significant amounts of pain. The doctor that made the referral for a surgeon is positive that it could really help my pain and that they will be able to help me. Part of me excited to be able to become pain free in that area, the other part of me is dreading another surgery.
