I’m out! So far not too bad. Incision pain managed by meds. The worst part is the gas pains. I want to get out of the bed to relieve them. Oh and my mouth is soooo dry but no liquids til tomorrow. I can’t wait to start this next part of my journey!
Good job... you need Biotene. It relieves dry mouth. Walk to get rid of those gas pains

Congratulations. Walk as much as you can and sit up rather than lie down to get the gas out.

Going on day 2. All is well still haven’t eaten or drank anything....so weird not to be hungry. I was hungry all the time. Been up and walking although afterwards I’m exhausted. So far so good. Talked to my kids on the phone, they asked if I was skinny yet!

      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!
