Banded this morning and in quite a bit of incision pain. A hernia was found so they said that's why. No gas pain though... yet!! Good luck.

Yes I am spending the night 1) because I have a bleeding disorder so as a precaution 2) I live 6 1/2 Hours away from my surgeon. I honestly don't know how people handle going home just hours after surgery, I am having pain just on my port incision and gas pain in my chest and shoulders.

Thank you all for your support, it means so much! I'm not sure I could have gotten through this without LBT members! Everyone has been amazing. Even if it isn't a thread I reply to, I have read so much that has gotten me through this process!!!

      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'. ???

      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!
