I know me too. It feels like I've been going through this forever since my insurance had 6 months of requirements before they would approve.

Me too, I started the process 2and 1/2 years ago, and have been going up and down to the hospital ever since , and to other clinics . It was cancelled last November -due to missing instruments! - the mind boggles ! then cancelled again on 25th July because of extreme heat , and I finally just had it on 12 th August . I still can’t believe it’s done ! Good luck mom, you’ll. feel great when its done :-) Youre on the road to your new life!

Wow 2 1/2 years then I guess I shouldn't be complaining about 6 months. Cancelled for missing instruments & extreme heat never heard of that before. I'm sure you are very happy that it is finally over with. Thank you for the well wishes. I can't wait to be on that road as well 😁

That is crazy. Gosh, if they cancelled for extreme heat here they would only be able to do surgeries half of the year!

The hospital said it was a first for them ! To be fair,it was really extreme heat , hottest day in History in the U.K I was told . My son said it was hotter than when he was in Australia! I think they were afraid of the surgeons passing out ! Hope your blood work and ekg went ok :-)

      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!
