I had abdominal hernia surgery a year and a half ago. Had similar symptoms, but scans did not show obvious hernia. If there is no telltale bulge where muscle has torn, the doctors have to go in and look for it. My surgery was supposed to take 1/2 hour with 1-2 month recovery time. It took 3 hours and 1 year to fully recover. Unless it's an obvious tear (and the doc will know) avoid the surgery if possible. Just my opinion.
