My stomach still feels sore 10 days out of surgery when I sit/ stand. It's much less pain and is manageable but I was wondering when does this stop? It comes and goes but is a very dull ache that spikes sometimes. When did it stop for you guys? Did you even experience this?

I will be 4 weeks post op on Monday and I was told to look forward to it until I am 3 to 6 months post op because my muscles and nerves were cut and now they are coming back...ugh some days are definitely worse than others but hopefully it will be gone for good soob.

So it can hurt for months? Guess its true they cut through nerves and have to recuperate on little nutrients right after.

I am 6 weeks PO and still have some soreness at times on my left side. No big deal really, just know its there.

The soreness will take some time to heal but it gets better day by day. I think it took about 6 weeks maybe a little more or less to complete stop feeling the soreness.

I'm 10 weeks post op and I have no soreness -- I think my soreness was gone by week 3 or 4. I've been working out with my trainer since 4 weeks post op and have had no issues with abs or heavy weights. Guess it's different for everyone, though, but it will definitely get better.

I am 18 days out from surgery and I was feeling great. Ion Friday, while getting up I'm sure I tore some scar tissue and it hurts badly. It's almost as bad as surgery was. I'm hoping the pain doesn't last long.

Same for me. As a whole no pain, but the larger incision on left side can be tender at times.

      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!
