It's actually been a while since I've been online and for that I apologize. Yesterday I found out that my little Joshua has inguinal hernia. Has anyone else been through this? We are meeting with a surgeon on the 28th and our pediatrition didn't tell us much of anything. I'm wondering if he has to be under some kind of anesthesia(sp?). This is kind of freaking me out. I went online to see if I could find out anything and I didn't find much info. Can anyone help me out?

I don't know anything about it, but webmd.com has detailed info:

Don't worry about the anesthesia. Kids have surgery all the time and the risks aren't huge. Of course being a Mom, you'll still worry but try not to let it freak you out.
