Hey guys. Things went well in surgery.. I'm back in the room trying to sip. Man that's hard. My stomach hurts but pain meds are helpful. I had a good bit of nausea this morning but I think it's gone for the most part. Couldn't do green Jello at all!!! Thanks for your support!

Hang in there-it just keeps getting better and better. Small victories are great-I found some new jeans in my wardrobe this morning that I bought ages ago but they were too small. I was too bone idle to take them back to the shop so they have gathered dust on a hanger for heaven knows how long. Thought I'd give them a try this morning and YES!!!!! They fitted!!! I was sooooo pleased. I've been wandering around with a stupid grin on my face all day. Love it!

I'm so sorry! Yes, they gave me liquid hydrocodone and phenergan tablets that knocked out the nausea.

      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!
