I had my surgery yesterday and have had very little pain. It's mostly sore. Some times I have pain at the site where they took my port out. The best thing for you is to walk as much as you can. Wishing you all the best.

@@Tracy6035 Congratulations! Welcome to the other side. I am trying to get a shake in me right now. It's hard, I am getting in the Water they require, but the shakes are another story. I just keep trying. I had surgery on May 20th, and got home on Wednesday 27th. A few complications arose. Slowly getting better... I am allowed strained cream Soup now. So I tried cream of broccoli tonight made with milk, instead of Water for the extra Protein. Great change from sickeningly sweet sugary tasting shakes! That's the first thing that has tasted somewhat good to me since the surgery.

I wish you continued success and healing.

My surgery was the 27th,went home on the 29th and I feel great. No pain. Just a little sore now and then. The only issue I'm having is getting all the fluids in. My doc wants a minimum of 48oz/day but would prefer 64. I got in 32 yesterday. Not great but hey it's a start.

      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!
