I'm out of surgery and one day post op. I'm sore and have gas pain when I try to drink but otherwise doing well. I am keeping everything down and should be home tomorrow.

I came home yesterday and wasn't in too much pain. This morning, though...WHAMO! I am in crazy pain! I'm also running a low grade fever. Is that normal?

Bring saline, bio teen chap stick. They were a great help to me. I'm recovering and stayed with my diet like a flea on a blue tick coonhound! Walk walk walk the walk some more. Sipping is key also. You guys and dolls know this but I'm proof that it can be done. Peace to you all !

Yikes! That's no good. I just thought it was my body trying to heal itself. Is this worth an after hours call, or can it wait until the morning?

      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!
