I had a hernia operation when I was in my 20'*, everything went well except it really hurt when I tried to walk afterwards. They told me that the quicker I got up and started to walk the quicker my recovery. Obviously!
As for the car, it can wait, I've had a car sit for 18 years, and it was road worthy when I parked it. Now I have the attitude that there are other priorities.
Good luck with the surgery harofreak00

I am not worried about the surgery. I was completely at peace until I told my mom and my girlfriend. They were all freaking out, and I'm like, "what"
This will be my 3rd surgery, I have had my tonsils out in 9th grade, and my appendix ruptured in 11th grade.

There are risks associated with smoking and surgery apart from the obvious health hazards. Stopping even a short time before surgery can have significant benefits.
Bottom line, don't let yourself get worked up. As others have mentioned, your car will still be there. Your health and well-being should always come first.

I had a bilateral inguinal hernia when I was 4, and had my appendix removed when I was 5.
I'd rather have a hernia surgery than the one I have been putting off for 6 years.
:?
Good luck Andrew, you'll do fine. It'* especially unfortunate that it'* happening when you're moving.
