Riding with a Hernia
UekiTylor;1169535 wrote: I had my yearly checkup today and my doctor says I have a hernia. He seemed totally unconcerned about unicycling and was sure that no amount of racking myself with my unicycle or falling off would cause this or make it significantly worse. However, he is not a unicyclist and I thought maybe someone here may know a bit more about hernias and unicycles. I rode with a pretty major inguinal hernia up until the time I had it surgically repaired. After that I didn't even want to see my uni for a couple of weeks. I'd go with the doctor's advice tho, and have it repaired sooner rather than later. -- GILD 'three short gs and a long e-flat™' (http://w3.rz-berlin.mpg.de/cmp/beethoven_sym5_1.wav) - 'unihoki' (http://www.sinco.hu/data/pic/size_1/..._061007_26.jpg) 'if i'm murdered, don't execute my killer.'

Riding with a Hernia
I would continue to ride your unicycle. If your hernia gets worse as a result, then sue him for malpractice.

Riding with a Hernia
I talked to my surgeon yesterday. He agreed with my doctor that unicycling or biking or jogging would not be a problem while I wait for surgery. He said I would need to avoid it after surgery though. I currently have a minor inguinal hernia, so other people's hernias mileage may vary. There is supposed to be good weather this weekend, so I will work on mastering going in a straight line with no wall! -- UekiTylor ------------------------------------------------------------------------ UekiTylor's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/18923 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75448 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Riding with a Hernia
I ride with JC all the time which is pretty much like riding with a hernia. I have had no trouble with it so far. -- harper -Greg Harper *jc is the only main man. there can be no other.* "Natural logs are what you ride on a Mun'e'." - kevinalexandersmith ------------------------------------------------------------------------ harper's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/426 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/75448 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
