Lol, thanks. Girl I fast tracked this thing! I did what everyone said couldn't be done. Plus it didn't hurt that I'd done research a year or so ago. Cigna approved in two weeks! Uhh Dr. Kim office need to call back with official date for surgery!

Oh F.Y.I. they said that they had gotten a stack of approvals!

Congrats ... I did just what you did. I had completed all required work ups and was completed within my 3month requirement. However I picked a surgery date 2 months later because I needed to get everything right at home and work. Doing this has allowed me to be off from work for 8wks. Now please believe and understand that I am going completely crazy and ready to run back to work. Lol. Nov 12th or 13Hershey she comes. Look out. Now in your excited state go get prepared. Your date will be here very quickly.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
