I'm scheduled for that surgery at Kaiser on July 19th. This is the left side. Had the right side done about 15 yrs. ago. Mine was the open surgery with mesh, and this one will be the same. On the one I had before, the doctor did a local. He had a partner and the three of us conversed & joked the whole time. He told me to take a walk the next day, which I did for 2 miles. When I talked to him next, he said he did't mean something like that. I gave up the pain killers the second day because the pain wasn't that bad & I didn't want to take the chance on getting plugged up. As for sex, my girlfriend (now my wife) made me do it the second day after the surgery. It wasn't wild & sweaty, but it was just fine. I wasn't down much but did't do much either & went back to work in about 4 days. I'm hoping this one will go as easily, but my age now might not be a guarantee for that. Good luck to you.
