Whaddup, fellow Octosleevers! Just wanted to let the Mexico peeps know that I started a new thread called MEXICO OCTOSLEEVERS! I'd like to compile a list of sleevers going to Mexico to have their surgeries. It is so great to be in contact with others in the same sitch, and I heard from other MEXICO people that they wanted to know who, if anyone, they'd be in the hospital or hotel with. Its in the SELF PAY/Mexico section, and I just started it, so add your name if you're going to Mexico! Good luck to everyone. I cannot believe October is right around the corner...good vibes to all

Had to cancel my pre-op appt tomorrow because I got called to jury duty. Did my hospital pre-reg and picked up my drugs! Surgery at 11:00 am on 10/3.

      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!
