That doesn't include the charges for reading of the EKG and the chest xray, but that is 50% off too.

He told me I needed to go to a cardiologist and then he gave me clearance and requested bloodwork, EKG and ultrasound of my heart. I will tell you that the cardio tried to talk me out of it saying I didn't need it (lower bmi patient). I just listened, thanked him for his opinion and went on my way. He did give me clearance tho. I also had to have an EGD. He tried to talk me out of it too. My mind was already made up tho :)

Well. I made it. Yesterday was rough! I was so tired I couldn't walk at all. Threw up once when I took too much liquid pain medicine. I'm feeling better today. I'm sitting up more and will start walking in a little while. Still haven't had anything to drink since around 4pm Sunday.

Today is so much better than yesterday. The difference one day makes is huge! I walked around the block and went shopping with my wife. Time to rest a little now.

I slept practically the whole time. The second day is the worst. I took too much pain medication at one time and threw it up. Since then I haven't taken any.

      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!
