Day three post op and I have a bit of gas but much clearer in the head. I have walked around house alot today and took a small nap. Feeling pretty good. Port is a bit tender but liquid extra strentgh tylenol works good. Have not had to use the prescription pain meds at all. Alot of gas "movement". Thanks so much for all those prayers and good words of encouragement, It meant the world to me to read all those!!:sleep

Thanks for posting and letting us know how you are doing. I am glad everything went well. It sounds like you are doing well and it is good you don't have to use the prescription pain meds, but they are there if you need them. I tell ya, I found that the liquid tylenol works better for me than the pills ever did. My hubby agrees!

I had my lap band put on on Tuesday of this week. Everything appears to be just fine. Not too much discomfort. Got out of hospital on Wednesday afternoon. Dr. Hennigan did a fine job.

I had my band placed on 9/12/06 at Bassett in Cooperstown and am very pleased that there is very little discomfort. Got out of hospital on Wednesday and am looking forward to loosing the 80 pounds I need to.

      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!
