How do you know she had pain and suffering. I'm 6+months out and other than a week of discomfort post op, I've felt fine, better and better as I lost 70+ pounds.

Don't scare the newbies that they will be in pain. I didn't even take the pain med after day 2.

He isn't trying to scare anyone. I just had 4 post I should of put into one big post. I am in constant pain. I'm very happy for your weight loss!!! I guess really everyone handles pain differently and your one of the lucky ones who doesn't have to take pain meds.

Lucky you, a lot of us had pain and suffering and I really wish I had known just had bad it would be. My first 20 days after gastric bypass were miserable and the weeks that followed just aweful. Finally at 6 weeks I began feeling healthy again.

      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!
