Well it's done! I'm laying in my hospital bed as I type with a new pouch. Haha I have been really really shocked at how smooth my recovery is going. I've been up walking since just hours after the procedure. My comfort level is high, and my spirit is too! I did have an internal reaction to one of the medicines they administered during the procedure, and am now on insulin. Strange to me because I'm not a diabetic. Having my finger pricked every hour all day and night isn't really awesome but eh. It's fine.

I hope all of my April 11ers are doing well and feeling good!!

Everything went smooth for me today as well. Recovery time was smooth sailing and I was also up and walking shortly after sx. Nausea and gas pains have been the hardest thing to work through.

Good luck to all those going in this week! ❤️

Nervous is normal! Hopefully they've given you something to calm you down by now, and you'll soon be on the other side!! Congrats!!

      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!
