I am officially scheduled for April 3rd, but I am going to move it up, thinking sometime mid-March!

My dad will be coming with me, my husband is being a baby over his vacation time..... LOL

Thought about coming alone, my dad is not the greatest person to watch his kids have surgical procedures, was once "removed" from the hospital when I had my tonsils removed, HA HA!

Coming out from Denver, researching flights today. Spriit seems to have the best pricing, but that comes with a lay-over in Vegas, which concerns me more on the flight home.

What hospital in St. Louis? If my insurance would have covered it, I would have done mine at DePaul Hospital.

I'll fly in on the 14th, so I'm sure we'll probably run into each other. You'll be post op and I'll be pre.

      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!
