I just had my surgery today. And let me tell you the pain hasn’t gone away from the gas but I did great in the surgery..hope it goes away soon. If y’all have questions feel free to ask

I'm amazed you have revocered enough to type! So, it's gas pain rather than incision pain? What are you getting for pain? Glad it went so well for you!

Nibble yes it’s more gas pain, that’s why they want me to walk a lot and they gave me morphine

Hi everyone,

I'm from StL MO, I'm excited to get my life back on track, But I'm staying home for the holiday. I don't need the stress of it all. As for pain I live with that every day. So it's only for a little while, we can do it.

I walk told walking is the best way to get rid of that pain. I’m not looking forward to that at all.

      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!
