I had surgery this morning!



Recommended Posts

Hi, I went into the hospital this morning at 6 am. I couldnt sleep last night, got maybe 3.5 hours of sleep. I never saw my surgeon, those drugs work!

Like some say, I feel like I got the crap kicked out of me by a horse, but amazingly, I am feeling ok. I just had a popsicle, it was heavenly! My hubby and I just walked a little bit outside, we have a LONG drive, and walked it while he was walking the dogs.

I have this thing on my wrist for pain, sends a little electric tingle out there to help, and I just took a hit of my liquid Rx for pain.

I am tired, feel a little blah, but wow, I just cannot believe I am feeling this well. I do realize that I may hit a wall...I MAY, but I will be ok.

I just wanted to post, let the tenacious tens know I am kickin!

Take care all, I will post again.

Dana! Me too!! Just got back a little while ago. I'm glad you are doing so well. I'm in the same boat: sore, but not really hurting. We're on the way...

Hey Blues,

How are you doing today? I am still sore as heck, but ok. I didnt sleep too well, but I had slept a lot yesterday, so that was normal. My back is sore too. I want to take the Rx pain killer, but it burns when goes down and makes me cough...OUCH!

I weighed, not a smart idea, but i lose a pound!

Let me know how you are doing.

I feel so happy for you guys! I'm not sure if I'm an October bandster or early November. I had given them my old insurance card and I owed them $10.00. For those $10.00 I didn't get the date yet. LOL .... So next week I'll probably get a date. My Dr. said last week in three weeks???

      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!
