Answer #1

Idk, but I won’t suggest it

Answer #2

I didn’t think it was a good idea either, I just always end up on my stomach while sleeping so maybe I will sleep in a chair

Answer #3

that will give u back pains

Answer #4

I would rather have that then to have something happen to the hernia while I’m sleepin

Answer #5

Good point.

Answer #6

I hope ur stomach heals soon

Answer #7

Thanks, I have surgery on Friday to have it removed

Answer #8

Shouldn’t your surgery’s assistant be telling you all this? I’m surprised going into an operation this Friday, you have not asked the medical staff questions of this nature. I know if I was having an operation I would be asking them, what should I do before the surgery, how long will it take for me to recover, what things can I do or not do after the operation and will the operation interrupt my sleep.

Answer #9

I had forgotten to ask cause I was in some pain at the time, I really did mean to ask. I will get more instructions in the morning (tomorrow) on what I shouldn’t do
