My doc told me to plan on 2 and a half days. So day of surgery, plus two overnights, then discharged the third morning.

I was told that without any complications, plan on staying overnight. That's what I was told, and that was what I did....wish you the very best!!

One night, just about 36 hours from pre op to discharge for me. The doctor said to plan for 1 to 3 nights, with 1 night being most common.

I am an outlier. I went home the same day. Had to argue with the physician about this but the nurse practitioner was okay with it. Glad I did. I had no problems.

I went home the day after surgery. I had surgery around 7 am and went home about 2 pm the next day.

I was in on a Monday morning at 5am for surgery and discharged that Thursday late afternoon. My program has a three day stay usually for the sleeve, I stayed an extra day to consume more liquids.< /p>

      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!
