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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
