I haven't had the shoulder pain. I hear it's mostly contributed to the air in the abdomen. Some people get it when they are hungry and some get it when they are full too :thumbup:

OMG! I was so angry with myself for not speaking to my surgeon about this during my 2 week postop checkup.

I thought I pulled a muscle... I had no idea this was common!

I'm AMAZED!

For me it is not very frequent, and I notice that it's when I'm really hungry or have eaten too fast.

I can't believe this! I have had MRI's, nerve conduction studies, injections, and heart tests for this left shoulder pain!!! I have only mentioned the shoulder pain to my surgeon a couple of times (but got no feedback at all). I am calling my surgeon back tomorrow, something has got to be done. I have pain in my shoulder everyday, just about, to some degree. Sometimes it is excrutiating. I have never looked through the site until now, but you can bet I will from now on. Go figure...

      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'. ???

      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.

      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!
