I have been OBSESSING about the urine Catherter thing..! It makes me cringe just thinking about it >_< what does it feel like and did they take it out while you were asleep or how did the whole process go for you guys? I'm terrified of anything other than my IUD inside my vag. Lol it's just weird.

Put it in after I was asleep, took it out before I woke up, if it wasn't for the goo (lubricant) wouldn't have known they had been digging around down there :P now that was for a band and later for a band removal, dunno if bypass is different.

My surgeon has his patients alseep when they put it in. Kinda odd for me I was awake when they did for a csection. But I was out..... When I woke up they didn't take it out until the next day and that was painless! Don't worry about just relax and take a deep breath. :)

It's just so weird for something like that to be in my Body controlling my pee! It's kinda creepy not being in control of your own bladder like that. Whew! Just gives me the willies >_< ew!

Yeah, its crazy! But its a relief not having to pee when your fresh out of surgery.... Even the day after its hard! I had gas pain, I was hooked to iv I have these leg squeezers on I had to take those off, unplug my iv, get up and walk to the bathroom....

Mine was put in after I was asleep. It was taken out the next day. Painless. I barely knew it was in.

I had one placed during my hystorectomy and I am goin to be honest I hated every minute of it. It felt like there was pressure and I could not get comfortable. I did like that I could just relax and pee, but the it was not worth the feeling of pressure and discomfort. It did not hurt coming out at all 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.

        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!
