October Surgery Date



Recommended Posts

Just started my prep. Fun fun! I have to be at the hospital at 11am tomorrow and surgery is at 1pm. Very nervous, scared, excited. I have been crying off and on for 3 days.

You'll be fine.

Anybody else having sciatic pain? I haven't felt the outside of my left thigh since I woke up from surgery 10/23; 5 days and counting. Help?

could have been your positioning during surgery. You should tell your primary care doctor.

let me know how it is! I just had my first "meal" pourable key lime Greek yogurt. Right after I had to sit down bcs I got so flushed! Took a zofran too just in case. Can't wait for normal puréed food.

@@layknee hope its good!

I never knew I had missed tuna helper so much. About 2-3 ounces worth. Lol. It was good.

With all the troubles I've been having, I have avoided nausea, vomiting, and dumping syndrome.

No problem with sugar or butter.

Still having some cramping with Water. But tea with cream no problem. juice no problem.

It's weird. The worst thing is that I have a bad taste in my mouth more often than not. Not sure where it's from.

      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!
