On day 3. I'm mentally feel great. Positive attitude like "I got this". Still always feel the pain, but staying on scedule with pain meds, gax-ex, zofran, and xanax, so I'm doing ok. Think I may have over done it a little since I got home, just moving around and pittlling

It's day 3, so I'm excited about taking a shower and fixing myself up. Since the sun is shining, I may try to take a short walk. I still have a lot of recovering to do, but feeling awesome for getting to this pount. Loving my oz. Of broth, Jello, and Protein Drink. Makes that 2 week diet worth it now. LOVE being on the "other side" now. Thanks for the support on here. I will try and post some pics as I progress. If anyone can advise me on my sideways profile pic, would really appreciate it! Picture I'm attaching now is my release from the hospital.

Had surgery on the 19th. Came home yesterday. Raging headache and a pinched nerve feeling in my neck and left shoulder area. Can't figure out best way to get my personal mess down. Afraid they will get stuck. Dave

Hope the headache is gone. Use heating pad and gaxex for shoulder pain. Hope today was better.

      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!
