Well it's the morning after!

JOB DONE st 8pm UK last night .

I feel good or maybe it's the morphine. I was in ICU for the night but am now sat up drinking Water and having a cheeky laugh with the staff.

So far so good!

Just wondering why you were placed in the ICU? Was there a complication?

We agreed with the surgical team in advance that due to potential sleep apnea I should have close observations. Added benefits of monitoring has contributed to me coming home after just 20hrs!!

So far I have had no issue and been able to keep down milkshake, Water, beef Soup.

I'm bracing myself for a couple of days of pain as the operation takes its toll.

It's done now the only way is down ( in clothes size) feeling really positive about the future. Building my NSV list.

Xx

      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!
