I am scheduled for March 4th. Would love to stay connected to you all. I am doing a sleeve to bypass revision due to severe acid reflux. I am also having a hiatal hernia repair and my gallbladder removed.

Did you have GERD before you got the sleeve? I also have a hiatal hernia that gives me reflux sometimes but it's not bad and very manageable. My surgeon didn't even say anything it. I've also heard quite a few people say they needed their gallbladders removed After WLS.

I never had acid reflux prior to my sleeve. My dad and five of his siblings have died of esophageal cancer so my doctor was kinda freaking out about it. The roux n y supposedly should fix the acid reflux issue

      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!
