I am so sorry you are feeling badly. The best thing you can do is talk to your surgeon and keep trying new things. What you toleraated before surgery may be different now post op. Also talk to your nutritionist and see if they can also help.

Best wishes!

I am sorry both you and mizzliz83 are having this difficulty. I am sending out positive thoughts of healing and health.

I have not been sleeved yet but based on reading tons of posts it seems as if everyone heals differently and at different

rates. I hope things start getting better each day for you.

Ask for zofran for nausea, dissolvable and works wonders! Remember SIP not gulp, and chew to liquid. Try changing up the temp of things, sometimes that helps. If you're still throwing things up, talk to your dr about redoing the swallow test. About 2 months out they found a leak in me (tiny though! And not to scare you sorry) you'd know though, I got violently sick, dry heaving when there wasn't even anything in me.

      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!
