I was at the hospital at 6AM and back at home by 1PM. A good doctor must make a great deal of difference because I'm only having gas pains so far. Hopefully those start to go away real soon because they are serious a times. I am pleased to have crossed over into Band Land.....and excited to be on this new leg in my journey.

Welcome to "Band Land". Your user name made me chuckle!!!:D I knew someone who used to say that. LOL!!

My first day home was awesome!!! no gas, no aches, no nothing... then came day 2 and so on!!!:blink: Gas pain in the shoulder was THE WORST!!! I got the same advise, KEEP MOVING, my doc also told me to drink peppermint tea. I was a tea drinkin fool for days.:wacko: I felt waterlogged but it really helped with the gas pains!!! Good luck to you

      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!
