I live between Clinton and Newton Grove, but much closer to Newton Grove.

Where care you from and where did you have your surgery?

Raleigh here

How are you? Remember reading somewhere you had had complications. Unable to locate that post.

Hope you are doing much better. The first several weeks are tough, but it will get better! Take care.

Yes! My surgery was February 20 with Dr. McNatt and I couldn't be more pleased with the process and all of the members of the team. There are quite a few requirements that they have to qualify for surgery and sometimes they can be a bit burdensome, especially when your insurance doesn't have any, but I think they really want you to be successful. I have lost 40 pounds since the beginning of the process. The staff at the hospital was great for the two nights I was there.

A great friend of mine had his surgery also with Dr. McNatt also, in September of last year and has lost 140 pounds. If you haven't already, check out the support group this month.

Feel free to message me directly if you have Questions!

Hi neighbor! I'm going to Nash too, and I also have Dr. Naziri. I'm still in the pre-op stages...evaluations and whatnot. Last thing scheduled is my endoscopy on the 21st. Are you satisfied with your journey so far?? Are you on Facebook?

      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.

        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!
