I dont live in Ohio but have you asked your own Dr for a referral? Sometimes they "know people"... might be worth a shot.

Just find one fast and hook in with their support staff! I think it is important to have source of solid medical input!

Well... you shoud have a lot of great options within an hour's drive. My program is "fairly new" and building, but they are taking patients from the other show in town here.

I see Dr. Kalim (KA-leem) and really like him a ton!! There is one other doc in with him. I haven't heard much about him good or bad. I would DEF hear the bad tho as I work for the same hospital.

Yes I did speak with my doctor he said he didn't know anyone in Ohio but for me to look around.

Thank you for the recommendations.. I think I will check out that one Erie since its not to far.. Some also mentioned to check around Ohio state university hospital so I guess when I'm back I will definitely find someone to meet with.

      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!
