Recommended Posts

Has anyone had a hiatal hernia , acid reflux surgery and sleeve repair post sleeve?

Painwise, this has been worse than the orginal sleeve but I now have some relief from the relux. It was so bad that I had pneamonia 5 times since being sleever 9/11, my throat and nose were raw from the acid 'fumes' and I haven't vomitted since the surgery this past tuesday 2/12.

Until I woke up I didn't know I was going to lose my gall bladder or had a hiatel hernia! Glad that it all got taken care of at once. In a bit more pain than I would've been I'm sure.

Mary are you able to drink much? I am really struggling. I think if they wouldn't have fixed my hernia I would be able to get some nutrition. I can only drink a quarter of my supplement and I'm worried about being dehydrated :(

I am only drinking a little at a time, no way I am at 64 ounces, I am only drinking the proasis Protein since it is only 2.9 ounces and 25 grams protein, drinking 3 a day, till friday then saturday going to try the costco shakes, I am worried about barfing them up though, plus they are twice the amount. i am using a 2 ounce shot glass as a guide for my Vitamin Water, I know I can drink 1 whole one at a time without any pain, they I wait about 10 minutes and do another but I forget to drink.

      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!
