Has anyone else with EDS had an inguinal hernia? I have one and I’m trying to see how long I have before I need to surgically correct it

      You need to get it repaired ASAP. you don't have the luxury of normal connective tissue keeping everything static, it's only gonna get worse and it's gonna get worse a lot faster than normal

      Yes, please correct it asap. Mine was so bad that I couldn't lift my leg, I say the surgeon and he scheduled surgery for the next day. He said I could have died...
