Hello everyone! I am a bit tired here, so please excuse any major problems with what I write. My surgery was this morning and I happened upon this group after I got home. I am so excited now, with people just like me that I can ask all sorts of questions to. Thank you for this chance.

I will be navigating my way around so please excuse me if I ask some questions that others have already asked and has been answered.

Thank you!

Thank you for your kind words and welcome! I am surprised I feel well enough to surf the web too after this surgery. In fact, this morning I feel rather great! Still pain at the sites, but I am tolerating the Water and Protein Shakes wonderfully! I even called my doc nervous that there was something wrong because I felt so good! I was given permission to eat a small scrambled egg or yogurt if needed!

      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!
