If you feel the need, than go back. I had the same issue and ended up staying another night due to it. I know how you feel, as I still dry heave. Just try little sips or go back.

I'm glad you are feeling better. My incisions are held closed by glue! No stitches and no staples. I'm sure that is why mine don't hurt as much as many on here. I will post a few photos of my glued incisions so you can see the difference. Feel better! My surgery was Monday and I feel pretty darn good today.

Go back to the hospital is you feel bad, I wanted to go home too but I knew that I needed to be able to survive on my own at home before leaving, hope you feel better wishing you a fast recovery.

I have to say that we are ALL stars!! for going through what we went through, getting the sleeve is not easy and it gets better with each new day but it is not for the weak because you really really need to be strong for yourself.

Was wondering, how many people had hernias that needed to be repairded?

Me. Along with my band scar tissue clean up, my surgery took almost 5 hours! It was supposed to take 1.5 hours! But...thankfully I havent been having the heartburn I was having pre-sleeve! :)

      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!
