Hello, I had parastomal hernia surgery last September with my stoma relocated to the right side (colostomy) with full mesh. Now the R side has herniated (distal colon)  Has anyone else had this experience with Hernias ?  Looking at surgery again… ugggh! 
thanks!

Well that doesn't sound like fun. I wish I could help. I have a hernia but haven't had it repaired. I sure hope you have better luck the 2nd time around.
