Glad it wasn't a terrible complication. Happy to hear you are already getting better. That is crazy that you had no idea that you had the hernia.

I thought it was just acid reflux cause that's what I was told by a previous doctor a few yrs back. Good thing is, I haven't had any heart burn since surgery!

I'm glad to hear that you got through it!! I have a hiatal hernia that's going to be repaired during surgery too - hopefully I can be as strong as you!

So glad you are doing better now. I'm sorry to hear you are having a lot of pain. I had to stay an extra day at hospital due to nausea and blood pressure issues. But everyday seems to be improving now. The pain is manageable for most part but my blood pressure rises quickly at any little amount to a dangerous level, so I feel like I'm doing a balancing act evey hour between the two. Hang in there and know we are all thinking about you and your speedy recovery. Each day will get better and this part will all be behind you. Keep us updated and keep your chin up. I believe the best is yet to come.

Hope you are doing ok. I'm feeling better and getting more fluids and protien down, but still having trouble with my blood pressure. Hopefully it will all balance out once my body finds some sort of homeostasis. Keep us posted. My thoughts and prayers out to you and all of us recent post opers! We will get through this together.

I am feeling better...still tachycardic...but I am hoping it will reverse itself as my body finds its new "normal". Other than that and being sore I feel great and definitely ready to tackle this thing!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
