I am officially banded and feel sooo bloated and soar! I was give all kinds of prescription when I got home but since I just got home the pharmacy closes at 9pm sooo I have to wait for the morning time.

If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask!

Welcome Back! It's a huge bummerooney that they didn't give you your pain scripts at your pre-op. I'll be sure to learn from your pain :lol:

Keep us posted on how you are doing. We're here for you :crying:

Thanks soo much! I feel a hundred times better, but still soar obviously. My son is destroying the house and I have no motivation to stop him since my mom is sick and cannot watch him. I am trying to get enough energy together to go to target to fill my scripts. Hopefully soon enough. I had trouble sleepign last night. I had to go to the bathroom every hour..Hopefully tonight will be a lot better! I am not tired right now.

Congrats! Welcome to bandland! Woo Hoo!

I hope you can get the prescriptions filled soon! Keeping up with the pain meds is a must - you will feel sooooo much better! That is rough trying to keep up with your son, right out of surgery. I feel for you!

Let us know how things are going - it gets better each day!

      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!
