I'm in the ER for a possible strangulated hernia. [View all]

It has been around since my cancer surgery last year, but I’ve never had the pain and vomiting before like I had last night and now. It’s an incisional hernia that was not in the rads field. Waiting on the results of the CT scan with contrast. A previous scan showed it at 7.5cm in August, and 11.1 in October.

Prayers and good thoughts for a thorough diagnosis and treatment would be much appreciated.
