Day after surgery I'm so much better!



Recommended Posts

Feeling way better! Gas pain is minimal I'm just a little sore, but it's tolerable. I'm keeping down ice now and some blue liquids they gave to test for leaks. Which I was worried about since I couldn't tolerate ice last night and dry heaved my guts up! Other than the soreness I feel 100% no nausea just a little sleepy but feeling great!

Glad you are feeling so good after surgery! I have a couple of weeks to go and I hope to do as well as you! Is it accurate to say that you are not having much pain?

I'm not in much pain now at 24 hours after surgery. I feel sore like I did a ab workout. I have some stabbing type pains when I get up and down out of bed but they are more irritating than painful.

I had horrible pain last night. Gas pain and spasms in my stomach and nausea I threw up twice it was tough. But this morning im like another person! No nausea and I'm keeping liquids down and walking I feel good enough to go home!!

With the gas pain laying in bed made it worse so as the pain got worse and worse I decided I had to walk so I did and it helped so much!!! If you have gas pain and I hope you don't you HAVE to walk even if it's the hardest thing in the world! Which to me it was hard bc I was nauseated and a lil dizzy.

My mom however had no gas pain or nausea. She is doing awesome only some slight pain today getting up and down but she also feels good enough to go home!

      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.

      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!
