I have been lurking on the site for about a year cheering on everyone's successes and being inspired by people's triumph over the more challenging aspects of their journeys. I was in a dead sleep this morning sleeping off the effects of 3 back to back 12 hour shifts, when I got the call from my insurance coordinator @ 10:45am. When I saw the phone number, I was scared to answer because I was afraid of being denied but i put on my big girl panties and answered the phone. She said I am happy to tell you that you were approved by your insurance company. After I got off the phone I literally jumped out of bed and did the stanky leg and started dancing and crying at the same time. Happy New Year to me! Just waiting for the surgery coordinator to call me to schedule pre-op and surgery date.

      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!
