What type of pain from the gas? How was the surgery team was everyone nice?

The surgery team was really nice, make sure you follow their instructions. You are supposed to get up and walk at least 30 minutes every day to combat that gas. It was gas that they pump in you for surgery and it gets trapped everywhere. Those gas strips did not help, the gas is not in your stomach it's everywhere the strips can't get to.

My lazy butt didn't feel like doing anything after surgery and I wished I had it took about 2 weeks for that damn gas to get out of my back and shoulder. Very painful. Make sure you use that breathing aparatus as well you don't want pneumonia to set in.

      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.

        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!
