The pain meds are wonderful...in lala land right now. My hubby said the Dr. told him my gallbladder was fused to my liver and he had to burn it off....Oh my Wow' date=' and to think i was second guessing getting it out! Thanks to all of you for your encouraging words and advice. I really love this group <3[/quote']

Glad you're on the mend. I hope you will feel much better now! Prayers going out to you for a speedy recovery.

Wish that theory would hold true for my back! Was up doing more than usual at the reunion and I hurt so bad tonight. Want this stupid pain to be done!

I hear you. My L3 area is fricken killing me along with my whole tailbone area. You can't push anywhere from L4-S2 because it's so inflamed. Then there is my neck. He got deep with his fingers in the vertebrae yesterday. I really wanted to kick him in his balls it hurt so bad.

My pt dr said it's 4 pounds of pressure for every pound on your joints ect. So with my 80 pound loss that's 320 pounds I was like holy balls. No wonder we hurt so bad.

Today my food intake sucked. I didn't get all my Protein in or fluids. Is been doing increases in protein the last few days but today I didn't want anything!! The thought of food today made me feel sick. I tried tempting myself and no such luck. Felt gross today. Going to wake up tomorrow hoping to start anew. It's been awhile since I've totally blown my protein and fluids. Food has no appeal.

So I just need to get this out. I have been having a huge problem with Constipation. (Sorry if its a tmi) so today after trying everything the last 10 days and nothing. I racked my brain to try and remember what was sure fire pre surgery. Chinese food it was. Had 6 shrimps from a shrimp and garlic sauce. along with a few pieces of the vegetables. And sure as shit. (No pun intended) within the hour I felt relief!! Thank god for Chinese food lol.

      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!
