Im going back in!!!! NOOOOO



Recommended Posts

Well I went for my 2 weeks post op with the dietician, and she wasnt too happy that im still gurling and taking so long to get it down, so I popped next door to the surgeon and he is 99% sure he needs to do a small dilatation to stretch out a narrowing that may have occurred. it may have been due to the wretching for nearly 72hours or the fact that it's just tight. its done by gastroscopy but I dont really care. I dont want to go back in. sure its hard but I thought I was done with surgeries now!!!

Ive moved onto puree food in hopes that will settle it down a bit.! so he is giving me two weeks... and if there is no change then im going back in.

Weight loss update since surgery I have lost 14.3kgs in 2 weeks, which is 31lbs.. which of course Im stoked about but they say its the upper 5% of weightloss and considering im hardly getting anything in it may not be a good thing... its very hard for my brain right now considering Ive taken two years off my life in 2 weeks and im stoked.

hmmmm..... has anyone else had a dilatation before???

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
