I posted earlier, and now am just about pain free, No gas and my port is just a bit sore. I do tire easily and just don't overdo it. Most of my discomfort was from the gas and the fact I found out I was allergic to whey Protein, I sent back my case of powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shake mix for a full refund. Thank heavens, using the ESA soy chocolate shake, and the soy unflavored Protein powder I use it in the blended Soups and it works great. My nausea is gone, and no more "trots" LOL. 100% better than last week. I figure in a week or so I will feel pretty much normal.

I was so mad after I had my surgery and I was in so much pain. I actually made a post at that time thinking I was the only one experiencing any pain, because every blog and story I've read, everyone is "oh, just a little sore, but I'm doing okay" yadda yadda. I was shocked at how much pain I was actually in, and liquid Tylenol didn't do a darn thing! Same as some other people in this thread, I was in pretty bad pain for about a week. And my doctor refused to give me any pain meds after I left the hospital :thumbup:

I am in the same boat as Misti. It was my first surgery, first time being under, and i was also pleasantly surprised about how well I felt afterwards. Honestly piercing my tongue hurt worse. lol But I just got the liquid hydrocodine and from previous experince, I didn't even waste my time taking it. I had a fantastic surgeon who is pretty famous for other surgeries he has performed.

      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.

      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!
