I had surgery four years ago and had to travel in a car shortly thereafter. I think the travel may have affected the incision’s healing and now I have a non-painful hernia right in the middle of my abdomen. I have been excersicing but avoiding sit-ups and crutches. Is there and non-invasive physical therapy to help this?

Wednesday, July 18th, 2007After many years on the same synthroid and having Graves in my twenties, my thyroid blood test kept showing low TSH levels and then i discovered nodules!

Thank you,
Maggie
