Does Hernia Mesh cause Autoimmune Disease?

A survey showed 25% developed autoimmune disease and 30% developed fibromyalgia linked with Hernia Mesh.This was the survey of 500 women which showed the link between Hernia Mesh and autoimmune disease.
A study presented by the Cohen Tervaert in May 2018 at the 11th International Conference on Autoimmunity in Lisbon which will be published too.
Cohen Tervaert stated “My study is small; however, it is beyond coincidence that these symptoms, which often go untreated or even unacknowledged by some doctors exist among so many mesh implant patients. A larger study is needed to confirm whether in fact the implanted mesh is to blame.”
"When a foreign body is put into the body, there is an instant activation of the immune system. It continues to fight the foreign body and eventually, over time, fatigues and becomes dysfunctional," also added by him.
