Well I'm on my way to another hospital.. Since I've been sick on and off since sunday. I went for a ultrasound this morning because my blood levels were high, they couldn't see my appendix but my gallbladder had polyps in it and my primary doctor wanted to do a hydroscan of my gallbladder and it included a nuclear medication and I wanted to make sure with my batriatic surgeon and so he called me from home and he insisted tht it comes out and that the scan was going to be useless and we already know what's wrong! He talked to my primary doctor and now they have called the hospital to let them I know I'm coming to be evaluated by a surgeon and so I might get it out today or very soon! I just had my surgery october 9th well guess well see what happens!!! I'll keep posted! P.s. I am in pain! :( but I do love my surgeon he knows what's best

I've seen all of your posts over the last week. So sorry you are dealing with all of this. I really hope this gets resolved ASAP for you. I remember having gallstones before finally having it removed. They hurt really bad. Once that thing is out, you will feel so much better. I also think they surgery is pretty easy. I didn't think the sleeve was too bad but the gall bladder was even easier than the sleeve.

I went in and they had to do the ultrasound over again, and they didn't find polyps they found gallstones, so I will be going very surgery within a couple weeks

      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!
