I also have a parastomal hernia and am quite surprised there is not more discussion about them. What are the symptoms you have had that requires you have surgery for it? My surgeon does not seem to think I need surgery but am having terrible pain and cramping with stool elimination right around stoma area. So what are the criteria you had for getting a parastomal hernia repaired. What was wrong with it? Thanks.
