It did not cost me any more that I know of. I don't know if the ap port and they low profile port are the same????? Maybe someone else could answer that question for you. The ap port is a fairly new port by INAMED. My doctor chose to use the small port. There is some good info on this site about the ap port. Do a search for it and read away. Best of luck on your surgery.

jmom710, You are right the staff at dr querry's office are great. Shannon has really made me feel comfortable about the surgery and recovery. I think a good relationship with your doc and staff plays a huge part in this process being successful

Ok, It's day number 2 and I am doing well. I am really sore. The place that hurts the worst is probably my middle back. Not sure why unless it's from laying on the operating table. Overall I am still doing great. I am fixing to try some chicken broth with unjury in it and see how i handle that.

Planning for a great day!!

Wow how exciting! I am scheduled for mine on Nov 13 and will have to begin my pre-op diet beginning Nov 3rd. I'm so not looking forward to that part but I do know how important it is.

Keep us posted on how you're doing...I will be following closely. :clap2:

I am feeling better each day. Yesterday we went to Walmart. Probably not a great idea for 1 day post op. I felt pretty rough last night, but I slept much better and am feeling good this morning. I am having a little bloody drainage from one of my incision sights. I don't know if that is of concern or not. I have a call in to my doctor. I am also going to start a thread to see if anyone has had that experience.

Tralynn - Your surgery will be here before you know it. Hang in there on the liquid diet. It doesn't last forever.

      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!
