Hello Ladies and Gents!

Oh boy Back Pain uff it was so bad!!! I never suffer from back pain but right post-op I had the worse NECK & BACK PAIN I had ever experience. I ask for muscle relaxers at the hospital but they refused to give me some so I just walk walk & walk to try to relieve those muscles. I really feelt it was cause by being laying on my back for a long period of time, plus at the hospital the aides didn't turn me or changed my position as they were suppose to. I can't complaint that much they treated me so nice but big fail on that one! And I was so knocked out due to the anesthesia that I didn't have time to complaint at all, plus I'm not complainer lol!

So after I was d/c from the hospital I only used the pain killers for the first 2 nights and the rest is history! I been doing great!! No gas pain, no pain at all thank Godness!!!

Aleve is a no no post op as well

Its in the NSAID family. I was told no NSAIDs no aspirin. EVER. Tylenol is recommended though

      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!
