Quick question.. im day 2 post Surgury. . Is it normal to feel the actual band? I keep getting n passing pains at the band. I'm thinking its gas? Taking gas x strips.

I Dunt know where my port site is but I'm assume on the left cause its super sore there. Any input ???? Not feeling good :( liquid vicoden isn't working for pain at all!! Taking liquid motrin.

Hey I'm sorry I don't have the band so I am not sure how that feels all I know is that the gas is very common and the best thing is to walk, I recommend you talk to your nurse or surgen ASAP so they can help you

I'm on purée foods for the first 3 weeks then 2 weeks on soft foods then I can go to solid food so no , no liquid diet ( though half of my puréed diet is still protoen shakes )

      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!
