Restless Sleep/ Sweating?



Recommended Posts

Yesterday was my most active day since my surgery (5/1). I walked maybe a mile at the dog park with my two puppies. I also stopped taking my pain med (hydrocodone APAP)I was feeling pretty good, but I had a pretty restless sleep. I just didn't feel right and couldn't quite put my finger on it. Around 3AM, I couldn't stop coughing. I remembered that my pain med had a cough reducer. I took it, fell right to sleep and woke up about four hours later... my cough was gone but I had sweat like crazy (I don't normally sweat so it was very noticeable). I am thinking maybe I caught a little bug or something and the meds help knock it out?

Has anyone else had this type of experience? I feel fine now but wanted to get other people's insights. My first post-op appointment is on Thursday.

meds wouldn't knock it out in a few hours but dehydrstion would cause sweating...drink a lot today. I am thinking with the walking and you are still in recovery this might be it it was for me just last week.

Thanks for the reply. I had ~64 oz of Water yesterday, but after the walk in the Florida heat, I probably could have tolerated more. I'll try to drink even more today.

      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!
