question: hi i have severe pain down in my groin & right testicle, I have had prostate surgery, then had amassive surgical hernia following that , i  had an advanced sling  for incontinance.  On top of this i have ankylosy spondyilitesI in my lower back. I have just spent the night in E.D my bp was 235/115. I thought i may hav had another hernia as i can only go outside for approx i hr , then the pain comes on & i have to lay down, usually takes about 20mins to get relief.As well i have a strong mettalic ( like poison ) taste in my mouth
