I hope you get an approval quickly as well! I don't have an exact date yet. I was told it would be in Jan. I will meet with the surgeon in the next week or so.

I got a call today, I meet with my surgeon and dietician next wed. the 19th. I will get a date that day, along with preop diet info, gallbladder test ( not sure what that is) .

So after being so ready to get this done, today I got nervous. I can't say that I was scared but just overwhelmed I guess. Of course I still want to go through with it. But I couldn't stop crying. I know you all probably hear this all the time. Just surprised me that I felt this way and it caught me off gaurd.

      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!
