I'm trying to find out what the cost of a hernia operation might be at Hinduja Hospital in Mumbai or somewhere similar. Also, Im curious about how long someone would need to stay in the hospital afterward. It's all a bit overwhelming, and I just want to get a clear picture of what to expect. Could you help?

However, blackouts are not typically associated with Prednisone. Other potential causes for her symptoms might include: - Post-surgical complications or residual effects - Medication interactions or side effects from other medications Consult her doctor or neurosurgeon to discuss these symptoms and determine the best course of action.
