Hi Lenore and Wayne. I live in Illinois, but work in St. Louis. I had my surgery in September, so I'm only a couple of months ahead of you. There is a lot to learn from this site, but let me know if I can be of any help.

Good luck to you both... or I should say, good luck to us all.

Hi Lenore. My name is Pat and I live in southwest Mo. I had my surgery Nov.30th. I had to drive to Norman, Ok. to get my surgery done. That is a 4 hour trip. I could have gone to Springfield, Mo., but my regular Dr. sends all his paients to Ok. and he insisted I go there. My Dr. is Dr.Ronnie Keith and he has been doing these for some time now and seems to have a really large practice and they seem to do a lot of surgerys in Norman. When I go there I always stay overnight. My husband and I are in our mid 60s and an 8 hour round trip is more than we want to tackle. I really like Dr. Keith and his staff. They are so supportive and kind. I don't regret my choice or my regular Dr.s choice. I think he is a very good doctor. I'm new at this but am willing to share any information I have.

      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!
