Ok so finally not drowsy and fully AWAKE ! Obviously with any surgery there will be pain having a. Little but no where near end of the world pain lol ! That says a lot from me ! I’m like 0 tolerance for pain lol . Procedure went super smooth ! I’m already up walking around because the built up gas they tell you about is no joke ! But if you live like they ask you to it just slides out and bam no pain !!! I just signed up today and I am soooo amazed at how cared for I feel by all of you !! Thank you so much ! I told no one of my surgery except for my Husband ! Even with the pain I’m feeling like this is the best choice I could’ve made for myself !!

I’m doing great, have been walking the halls, ate a few tiny bites of Soup, Jello and apple juice. They gave me these teeny tiny spoons to use. I think I’ll go home tomorrow barring complications, how are you feeling. Pain meds are awesome.

      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!
