What Should I Be Feeling? Post Op Day 3



Recommended Posts

I am post op day 2 and I wish I could burp.

Right now I feel so full I can hardly get any Water down. I have had a little chicken broth down but that is it. I feel really bloated in my stomach but I am down from my surgery weight.. I just want to feel better soon.

Oh man, the burping will come. And the hiccups. They are not pleasant! Hang in there. My turn-around day was Day 6. Felt like a new woman. Drink what you can when you can.

I just had surgery on the 26th and I still feel very sore. My throat has been hurting and it hurts to swallow. I am a stomach sleeper so I've been using a pillow to keep from rolling onto my stomach during the night. Most of my pain is underneath my rib cage on the left side.. and when I move a certain way it feels like I can feel my stomach move.. very weird..

      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!
