Thank you! I'm hurting a little, but it's so nice to see my future in a much more positive way. I'm so glad I'm not one of the people that regrets it immediately.

I only hurt in one spot, but they keep my medicated. No gas pain or anything. Walking feels great! Just worried about the pain of the drain being removed.

I didn't have any drains for my surgery but I have had them in the past and they don't hurt coming out! Good luck

Congrats. I hope you are healing and feeling well. The first month was overwhelming but I have no regrets. Just take it one days at a time.

I had a drain. Be prepared, it's painful but the pain goes away fast.

      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!
