Event Description
On the above date i had my first hernia surgery and the hernia mesh was implanted.At that time i had a lot of pain and, on (b)(6) 2017, about a year the surgeon tried to remove the mesh, but he told me only half of it was removed.As it was already ingrown with the tissue.Because of a lot of pain, i had a third surgery in 2018, but the difference from the first two surgeries was that this one was laparoscopic.The first open, all went well, but i still had (and still have) pain and i asked the surgeon what the problem was, he said that the problematic mesh from the first surgery has migrated.Removal can probably be done, but with a huge risk of removing.The closest to the mesh testicle, i am terrified.Fda safety report id# (b)(4).
