I'm doing ok. Actually still in the hospital. I've had a lot of nausea up until this morning and they don't let you leave with that. At least my Dr doesn't. Because of the swelling the upper gi didn't go as planned. It got stuck in my esophagus. That was at 730 yesterday morning. They took new xrays around 1 and the contrast made it to my small intestines. So i didn't start the liquid diet until last night. So we will repeat tomorrow and hopefully go home.

I'm not in a lot of pain. They took my pain drip away last night and I only had one does of oral this morning at 315. It was so gross income refuse to take it again. I was gagging the whole time.

And of course I'm exhausted you don't get much sleep in the hospital. It's kinda comical now because every time I fall asleep someone comes in this room to do something to me.

Each day is getting better. Last night I could drink a whole lot. Today I'm getting down 2oz at a time.

Sounds like they are taking good care of you- that's good. I'm sure you'll be happy to get home though! Good luck with the rest of your stay. Hope you are feeling less nauseous by the minute. I hate that feeling over all so that must suck! :-/ looking forward to your next update. :-)

      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!
