I had surgery on 11-10-2011 and went to my post op last Monday, the doctor said I could do light cardio which I did Sat and Sun. I used my Wii and did 20 minutes each day. On Monday I had a sharp pain next to my incision area and it would only do it once in a while. This morning I got up and it feels like my port has moved down a little and now I have a little pressure in my chest area. I think this is from the port but the sharp pain is now gone. Also this morning I was very light headed and dizzy, but feel fine after I ate my Breakfast. Has anyone had this with their port? thank you.

Hmm. I think the pain might be your stomach not the port. If you havent used those muscles in a while they will be sore. I started working out and I had pain but that was from working on my muscles. I would just take it easy, walk dont run and see you it goes for the week It could be gas too. If you are concerned, talk with your DR. Hope this helps.

I just wanted to updat eeveyone, the port area feels so much better so I am thinking it was the exercise from this past weekend.

      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!
