Strange "sensation"



Recommended Posts

I have been feeling this strange kind of sensation on ocassion when I turn a certain way. It almost feels like I can feel the band itself. I know it's not the port, it's not in the same spot, which is near my belly button. This is up closer to my ribcage, near one of the incision spots. And it's not a painful feeling. Just like I know something is there. :cry

Has anyone else ever had something like this? I don't think anything is wrong. Just curious I guess.

Thanks for any input.:)

are you sure it's not your port? or maybe the tubing from the port to the band? I know that my port is on my left side right close to my rib cage. I feel mine on occasion. No pain - just a weird feeling.

I think your both right. The tubing or something. I know it's not the port, the dr specifically showed me where it is, right on top of my belly button. I just didn't expect to feel anything else. Well at least I now know I'm not the only one. :)

Thanks for the replies! I really must say that I love this site!:banana Wether just reading through the postings, or by getting replies to something I posted, I feel the support of everyone!

Thanks !!!!!!!!

      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!
