[|AI|]  Thanks for asking in Chat Doctor forum In short: Surgery is risky but not impossibleExplanation: Your reducible hernia has turned into non-reducible now and may intern gets obstructed and can cause emergency problem. So, surgery is risky in you, but there are surgeons who take challenges and surgery can be done under spinal anesthesia after necessary precautions to prevent bleeding.  So, its up to you to decide to undergo surgery or to obey your cardiologists advise. Good luck.
