First 3 days post op was hard. I am 8 days out, back to work and my surgeon told me today I was near perfect in my recovery. You may second guess but this is the best thing I have done and I bet you will feel the same.

Thank you for all the supportive messages - I'm feeling the love from the forums right now and I need it! I was sleeved at 8am this morning, and I woke up wishing I could get knocked back out lol nausea was worse than the pain....meds have taken care of both thankfully.

I'm just hanging out in my stylish hospital gown trying to rest. For the first couple of hours I was in full on regret mode but as the day goes on I am feeling much better.

Thanks everyone

So happy to hear you are doing well! They should be able to give you something for nausea, did you pass your leak test yet?

Hope Your Day is Great,

Glad to hear you are doing good! Nausea is such a terrible feeling. Ask for the Behring the ear patch, it works in conjunction to ur nausea meds

      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!
