Hikerchik,

My surgery is @ 9Am on the 17th. What time is yours?

I am staying at the Hampton Inn on East Cottnwood Drive.

I am flying home on Friday @ 3:25.

What's ur schedule??

Who is coming with you??

My son is coming in Tueday night from LAX to spend the 24 hrs after surgery with me. A friend of mine is flying into

Denver with me and staying with her brother. They are both flying back Thursday for work reasons. I am flying home Fri.

I am so excited. I can't wait!!!:sad_smile:

Are you a hiker now?? Or plan to be in the future??

I would love to hike, but am too heavy right now to hike much.

Spent a few days in Sedona, Az a couple of years ago and hiked alittle. It was fantastic.

If you're having surgery at Crown Pointe Surgery Center in Parker Hospital, then yes, the Hampton Inn is only 2 miles from the hospital. If you get stuck at stoplights, it's at most a 5min drive. They also offer a medical discount.

I'm doing great! Recovery was a breeze, and I just flew back to Denver on Friday for my first fill. Everything is moving along quite well! :biggrin:

      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!
