Okay guys. I had revision band to leave yesterday. Every thing this far has been amazing! I haven't had a lot pain except by the drain site. From the drivers to Dr Lopez has been all I expected. They all are very nice and speak great English for the most part. I go for the leak test in a little while. Can not wait to get some apple juice! Lol

I had my surgery at Mi Doctor on 04/04/14 by Dr. Cabrera. My experience was good. The difficult part now is trying to figure out what liquids my body can process. Right now my body doesn't like Protein shakes!

I had my surgery last night with Dr Illan. I had an amazing experience. No gas pain and no barfing (my biggest fear). I am being treated so well. I feel like I am on vacation.

      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!
