They took me off my pain pump tpday after clearing the upper GI and I was doing real well till tonight when phlem got stuck in my throat and while coughing it feels like I blew my diaphram out and they had to call the doc and get my pains increased. I also had a real bad nurse today. Any ideas on the diaphram pain?

I had really bad pain going from my breast bone shooting directly into my back. It was so painful meds didn’t touch it. My doc can in and said it may be due to him nicking my pancreas, but it went away by the next morning.

What I did to stop my pain was to lay on my stomach (which was suggested by my nurse), and I walked around the hospital and try to relax. I hope they are giving you something for your pain. I wish you luck, I know how you feel, I’m just 5 weeks out so its fresh.

Thanks VSgirl. They ended up giving me more of the iv medicine til the next morning, I heard 2 possible things, an esphosigial spasm or a diaphram spasm. Either way it is gone and I am home!

      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!
