If you haven't try standing up, I was burping like it was my job and it seemed that everytime I stood up out it came.

It will come, take some gasx and keep sipping. And I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you best start getting some stool softener in you too :wacko: You certainly don't want problems on that end.........(sorry).

Feel better soon.

O that's another problem I'm having I've always had a problem with so I did go number two about 2 days before my surgery and now here it is the 3rd day after my surgery and still haven't gone I've took some pills but they have not worked

I second Wildrose's suggestion! Definitely keep stool softener in the house to avoid serious and painful issues! Milk of Magnesia is one of my closest and dearest friends as well!

I used the powder and just mixed it in my yogurt - od'd a bit and had some problems on day 4 but that resolved itself. I am 2 weeks out and still need some help in that department.

      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!
