Been vomiting since last night. Intense constant nausea. Can't keep anything down but Popsicles. Called the on call surgeon. He says he's 100% sure it's a stricture. EGD tomorrow morning. If I stop being able to hold down popsicles I have to be admitted today for fluids. I'm gonna keep fighting that.

Feel better Hun! I was the same way and I ended up being super dehydrated and really low potassium. I wish you a speedy recovery and you feel better pronto!

Thanks. Still at home. Popsicles are staying down. But I do wonder if I shouldn't have gone in just for nausea meds. This nausea is ridiculous!!! My legs have been cramping so I'd bet my potassium is low too. Guess I'll find out in the am:(

No blockage. No stricture. He's not sure what the nausea and vomiting is about. He said it may be the start of my gall bladder going bad but Ita awfully soon. I have an appt in Sept and if it continues he'll do another u/s. For now I have nausea meds. They are helping greatly and I can eat small amounts of solid foods again without feeling 2 seconds from puking.

      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!
