I'm the same way except I never vomited although the morphine did make me nauseated. Once I stopped that I felt better. I'm drinking my first Protein Shake at home now but it's taking a long time to get it down. Just a lot of burping. Gosh my bed sure feels good!!!

Well I'm finally on the losers bench . The surgery went well, they found the hernia and repaired it. I have no regrets at all. I'm not hungry, nor do I crave food. My mom passed by and had one of my fav dishes and I didn't even care I forgot until now. I have so much gas pain its to much. I have walked and walked and walked. Little by little it goes away. The morphine was a big help. No vomiting no nausa no itching thank God. I got one more night here and I'm going home can't wait. I pray tht everyone on here has a safe a speedy recoverery. :-)

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
