Good luck with surgery!!! Ask your doctor what he recommends if u experience gas pains...I'm 3 days post op and have been quite miserable today...bloated and gas pains. My incisional pain is tolerable....only a little sore with certain movements.... I would've like to have been better warned/prepared for gas pains.... Good luck!!!!

I agree on the gas pains..it made me miserable. I used a heating pad and icy hot and over the counter gas relief chewable tablets and they worked better then the pain meds! Of course ask ur dr about taking ovc meds before u use them. U will do great! Good luck!

I know EXACTLY how you feel. My journey starts 10/1 as well. I have an afternoon appointment, wish I was in the morning. I would rather wake up, get to the hospital and get it done early. When is your appointment?

Best of luck to you and the girl having the operation 10/2. It is the best decision of my life. It is a tool that gives us back our lives.... But we must work it and use it as a tool... It's not magic.

Best wishes

Thank you all! I'm scheduled early in the morning! Just like Skisyd, I also cannot sleep. I'm just having last minute jitters. :(

      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!
