Hi, I had right inguinal hernia surgery with mesh 18 months ago, I developed recurrent hernia on the same side, a month ago, I just had laparoscopic surgery a week ago to repair the recurrent hernia, so far so good.

My recommendation: skip the general surgeon and get a second opinion from a dedicated hernia specialist. Seriously!
