The pain between the shoulders could be gas, walking is good. Hopefully the doctor can prescribe you something for the nausea. My daughter had surgery recently and she was nauseous from the anesthesia and Zofran helped her.

Hope you feel better

Thanks. Zofran is what they gave me. If it's no better by 10 I have to go to the ER

Try a heating pad on your back also. Sometimes that eases the gas pain.

@@Margie122 - don't lie flat either, keep head somewhat elevated, and try to keep moving as much as possible.

Thanks everyone. My surgeon called and I'm going to the ER to be admitted again. I'm scared this won't ever go away.

      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!
