If it's been this way the whole time since my surgery and I just haven't noticed it till now maybe a lot of veins were cut and now it's like the blood from 3 arteries are only being retuned by one vein thus causing a lot of pressure regardless of laying down? Is this possible or would the veins "adjust" to send less blood "knowing" that their was only one vein to return blood? (this particular theory really bothers me, can this even happen)
The second thing I thought it might be is a hernia and my intestines are blocking the blood from returning?
I'm making a doctors appointment because the blood not returning when lying down is bothering me believing my first theory about 3 arteries and increased pressure due to fewer veins is the case.
Thanks again.View Thread

On a separate note when my varicocele acts up (starts to hurt) 9 times out of 10 there is food passing through my intestine (the part that crosses over the spermatic cord) I can "push" this food manually past the area upon which the pain will stop. Do I have a inguinal hernia?
Thanks.View Thread



So, 20 years best case scenario, or is it possible to be ok for longer than that / whole life / I'm 24? (I think I'm going to start running / cardiovascular health) Thanks again.View Thread


I can't seem to find anything to support the idea that it may not get any worse.
Has anyone lived with one for years and it hasn't gotten worse?
ThanksView Thread
