Cancer/chemo and lap-band?



Recommended Posts

Lynn, glad you are doing well. Radiation, will make you super exhausted, you will get bad burns, just make sure you put the ointment they give you on right after your radiation, that seemed to help me out a lot. Keep putting it on as often as you can to help with the burning.

I had my ovaries taken out in Dec. 2012, after 5 years of taking tamoxifen, which cased the lining of my wall in uterus to get to thick, thought I might have gotten cancer from it, but thank god tests were negative.

Take care, rest lots and keep fighting! Keep me informed of how you are doing please.

Hugs,

Shelley

Danielle, how is your radiation going, I know you just started on the 6th I believe?

Hope you are both doing well and taking care of yourselves through this. I'm praying for you both..

Hugs, Shelley

      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!
