Thanks to EVERYONE who gave me their input on my post surgical issues!!!! I called my surgeon today cuz I just couldn't take it anymore.. And he automatically admitted me back into the hospital with a regular IV, nausea meds, and meds for the heartburn!!!!! I'm so glad I called!!!!!! Not too thrilled about being away from my girls, but they need a healthy mommy!!!!! I also wanted to give you guys my stats for anyone who needs some motivation!!!!

Starting weight: 246

Date of surgery: 237

Current weight: 218

hi there, glad you are on the mend :)

you received the good advice to call your surgeon, but IMO, its great to check w/the board, but if you/anyone EVER have doubts/problems with your surgery results, health outcome, CALL DR

congrats on your weight loss, i know you'll do great on the road in front of you :)

      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.

      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!
