It will pass. You're doing great. Focus on walking and fluids. Once it starts getting better it gets better fast and you're really close to that point. Are you home now?

It sounds like you are doing really well. Just listen to your body and rest when you need to. Sip every few minutes all day long and try different temperature liquids to see what works best for you.

Everyday gets better 😊

hey, i had my surgery June 1st and doing great. Take your pain meds and get plenty of rest, sip fluids all day. I bought unsweetened tea and added the crystal light pure peach tea to it and loved it. Wasn't able to do regular crystal light so i had to get trivia and switch to the pure, the other sweeter was making me sick. Good luck and keep us posted!!!

      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!
