Sounds like he needs a sitting down job, possibly part time. Benefit rates and state pensions in this country are pitiful. I wonder how many MPs could live on £390 a month? Most of them would probably struggle to live on that little a day! If they couldn't do it, what right have they to expect anyone else to?

Sorry to hear this: must be disheartening for everyone.
Not convinced about nerve pain lasting so long; everyone is different, but that’s a long time (based on my sister’s new hip with nerve damage, lasted a few weeks not months). However, I’m not a medic.
But if it was my family, I’d get a second opinion. Go private, probably to a private GP initially (eg Ross Hall, many others to choose from) as it’s not clear what the specialist would be - you get a proper long time appt, not the few minutes with NHS.
I had to go private (self funded, no health insurance) for a vascular thing, NHS hospital DVT clinic said I didn’t fit the criteria to even go onto the 2 year waiting list. I checked reviews & qualifications first. Best thing I did: advice, proper tests, as much as I needed of his time. Cost a few hundred £.

On readng your entry I remembered something about this:
"Mesh used for hernia repair surgery has a high failure rate that can cause serious complications for patients, even years after the implant. Seven common signs and symptoms of hernia mesh failure include bulging, burning, constipation, impotent and sexual dysfunction, nausea, lethargy, and pain.
Depending on your injury, you may need to seek removal of the hernia mesh implant or revision surgery. You also may be able to file a claim for compensation for injuries."

This is exactly what went through my mind. Many years ago,I had a hernia repaired with mesh. For a long time it felt as though an instrument had been left inside me (best way I can think to explain the sensation) Fortunately, I was able to live with it and I do not seem to have too much trouble with it these days.
I believe that a lot of ladies are also complaining about a certain repair procedure using a mesh insert and now live in agony.
Personally, I would be seeking advice from a private consultant at a different hospital group, although I suggest at time of making the appointment mentioning what the purpose is, because you will be looking for this consultant to criticise the work of another.
