Recommended Posts

So I am officially sleeved! Had surgery on Monday, and I was supposed to go home yesterday, but I was so nauseous I couldn't even hold down an ice chip :( So, they kept me here. I am grateful that the surgeon is cautious, but I wanna go home! :(

Hope you feel better soon and get to go home. I was in the hospital an extra day as well. The first couple of weeks were the hardest, but once the swelling started going down it was a whole new ball game. I am doing great now, and you will to before you know it. Goodluck

Sorry to hear you're having to stay in the hospital. That happened to me too. They kept me for 3 nights because I couldn't keep anything down. They said I probably had a reaction to the anesthesia. Hopefully you can go home soon but at least you're where they can take good care of you. I know there is no place like home but if you get dehydrated you'll end up right back in the hospital. Don't rush yourself! Try the popsicles if they have them. That was the only thing that I could stomach at first. I think the cold helped with the extra swelling. Good luck!

So happy your where you need to be. The hardest thing is to go home and have to go back to the hospital due to dehydration. It does get better! ;)

I know how you feel. They kept me another day because my red cell count was low. I was so bored and sick of the hospital. Dehydration is a worry and if not fixed will just land you back into the hospital. Praying for you too. Take it easy and sip.

      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!
