I am scheduled to go in Monday for a revision surgery, due to a leak in my port. I am not as nervous as I was the first time round but as the days get closer I feel nerves going. My worst fear now is the fact that I won't be knocked out. They are going to numb and sedate me. They say I probably won't remember anything with the sedation so I will trust them with this.

In the mean time I have tried to keep myself busy by turning my blog into more of a website. Nothing fancy but dressing it up some. So many things I would love to do with it but happy with it for the time being. It is www.shoppingwives.com I do real honest product reviews and cover anything from food to trips. I am not selling anything, just offering my opinion. Of course I also talk about everyday life, my family. bargains.. I vent. It's the good, the bad and the ugly. I also started a Facebook page for it:

Please feel free to like my page and follow me. I would love to hear from you. After all I am going through it will sure help to have friends!

      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!
