Went to the pulmonary doctor today and found out that I can not travel for a month and I have to inject myself with blood thinners for 10 days. I have two trips planned for June, so is kind of a problem. They are trying to move up my date. Did anyone travel after their surgery? How many days did you stay in the hospital? Thanks for any help.

Well I will be travelling 4 days after surgery! I am having my surgery in Mexico on May 10th. Will spend 2 days in the hospital & 2 days in a hotel. Then fly from San Diego CA to Philly PA. Going to make sure I walk about on the plane & see if I can upgrade to business class on the way back.

I totally forgot people go to Mexico for this surgery. I think they are just being over cautious, which is a good thing.

You have to remember everyone is different. Do you have a blood clotting disorder?

You actually went to see a pulmonary doctor so maybe they know something we don't?

      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'. ???

      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!
