Had my surgery this morning at 730a. Had lots of level 9 pain at first. Then i got a Morphine injection. Finally pain is a 2. Morphine works better for me than the Fentanyl. Thr pain now feels like i have either been coughing or have been doing a lot of abdominal exercises. I have to stay 2 nights because i have severe sleep apnea and had some breathing pauses in recovery. Glad i brought my c pap with me. Then tonight i went to sleep snd one of my incisions started bleeding. The nurse reinforced with a new dressing. And i went for a walk while the staff changed my linen. Back to sleep soon.

I had surgery Tuesday, have severe pain that I received morphine thru IV, the gas pain was bad for first couple of days, I just walked and walked. The worst thing was the nausea, so bad ,I threw up several times, had to contrast dye x-ray to make sure everything was ok. Which it was, got patch behind my ear for nausea, received oral nausea meds too. Just changes my pain meds from Norco to oxycodone to see if that helps with the nausea. I keep telling myself everyday gets better.

      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!
