In the middle of the night....



Recommended Posts

have any of you woken up in pain? I woke up last night or should I say early this am with horrible pain. I cannot pinpoint it but would say it felt like it was in the middle of my back. So I get up, and think this hurts. I drank half a bottle of Protein Shake and went back to bed. I really think it was hunger. How many has this happened to? Thanks ya'll!

I was getting that and sometimes still do but from what I have read on this forum it appears to be gas pain and the gas pain is alleviated when you walk around which I have noticed that the walking does help a lot. I guess if the Protein Shake helped then that is what is necessary - if that would help me I would probably do the same. I have been working hard to try not to eat at night.

i'm only 4 days out but i have also experienced this kind of pain. the only real pain that i've had so far is the gas. it's killing me! i get up and walk around, even though it hurts to get up, i feel that i have to and at least get the gas moving about. sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't.

K-butterfly,

Have you tried a heating pad? I slept with one the first week and a half. Put it on you upper shoulders or upper back if that is where the pain is. One day you will wake up and it will be gone :scared2: Trust me. (I am only 11 days out)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
