Ok all, so I had a successful surgery. I experienced pain, but not hat I couldn't tolerate. My threshold is really high. I've been walking all day up and down hall. The worst pain is that i feel the hernia repair. No problems swallowing yet. I've only had Water and ice chips so far.

Hello. I am having a more difficult time than I anticipated. Honestly I think it's more the nausea from the pain med so I have eased back. I get gassy and the burps really hurt coming up. Sorry tmi. My nurse has been amazing so that helps. Going to try to sleep without the pain meds and see how I feel when I wake up. I can't believe this day actually came!

Glad everything went okay. I wonder if the itching is from the pain meds. I had that once after a surgery and it was the pain meds. How did they treat you at TMC? Do you get a private room or multi-bed? How was your doctor. Can't wait for it to me my turn.

I thought it might have been the hospital gown. There I a fe detergents mom and my sister221 so figured that was the issue. I did g-et a private room and the doctor was amazing.- tmc treats you amazingly

Can't wait until I get my surgery. I am hoping the insurance company doesn't keep me waiting for an answer too long. Glad you are doing good and are going home soon. Hope this wind dies down soon. It is blowing like crazy down here in Green Valley.

Woops. Accidentally hit send. I am very nauseated and my temp is 99.6. Little worried. I keep dry heaving and it is extremely painful in my incision areas. So far this has been miserable. I keep hearing it gets better but I'm ready to start feeling better!

      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!
