I just got a letter in the mail from my health insurance provider. I GOT APPROVED!!! Things were at a stand still for a few weeks and I was getting very anxious and disheartened about the whole thing. But I finally got scheduled for my EGD last week and I actually go for that this coming Monday. I checked my mail literally 10 minutes ago and the letter was in the mail. I am so excited and I cannot wait until my surgery day. YeeHawwwwww!!!!

Thanks to all of you. I am really excited.

I know exactly how you are feeling. I got my approval call on the second. Seriously I think I was more excited then if they told me I won the lottery. Thing are moving so fast after that. I am on day 2 of the liquid diet and go for surgery on May 24th. Congratulations! The days will fly by and it will be here before you know it. :-)

      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!
