Penni Update



Recommended Posts

I'm so glad to see you back! I prayed for you the day of your surgery and also tried calling you earlier in the day. I was so concerned about you!

I'm so grateful to see that you are doing well now, and please know that I'm here for you if you need me.

All of My Love, ~Kelly

I'm sorry, but I have been so busy w/ year end and getting ready for my trip that I haven't really been keeping posted on happenings. What happened to Penni?? Why did she have to have surgery??? I read that she is okay and I am so glad for that. Can someone please fill me in. Tks.

Hey Estela I had an endoscopy done on Tuesday morning really for my own piece of mind with all that erosions happening and guess what? They found an erosion. I had surgery Tuesday night to remove my band. Somewhere on this board is a pic of my endoscopy and the erosion. I can't remember what thread it is on now. Someone find it and post a link here.

Hi Peni,

I am new to the forum and have not corresponded with you yet. My heart goes out to you. I will keep you in my prayers. I pray for wisdom and strength for you. What is the DS operation? I can relate to your battle with depression. I am journeying back from an 18 month battle. I wasn't sure I would actually live until the end of this year. But since I'm still here, wanting to make the best of it. My surgery is schedule for Dec. 27. You obviously are quite loved by the expressions of concern for you. I hope you gain strength from knowing you have a lot of people in your corner.

God Bless.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
