surgery @ 8 am tomorrow.



Recommended Posts

Everyone is asking me if I'm excited. I am, but there's some serious trepidation. I have a son with MD who depends on me. I had to tell his dad that he had to do better if something were to happen to me. I don't want to jinx it, just want to make sure things are in order. Still have so much to do tonight.

Its normal to feel some anxiety before the surgery. Try to keep your thoughts positive. Hopefully your surgery will be a breeze with no complications. Wishing you the best tomorrow, good luck. :)

That was totally me before surgery. Everyone at my surgeon's office was like, "Aren't you so excited?" I was thinking, um, no, not really...had a mix of emotions. I'm sure all will be well- you are doing this so that you will make sure to be with your son for a long time. The surgery is really very safe. Good luck!

      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!
