10 days after surgery or 10 days after you take the CAPS LOCK OFF.

Whichever comes first.

3/11 I had a hernia procedure at the same time. My postop was last Thursday he kept me on full-liquids. My doc said I needed extra heal time. But, if I ate too much or drank too fast I would feel those pains. And I have. I will start my pureed foods next week. Be sure to keep your doc informed on your condition and discomfort! Hope you start feeling better!

I was sleeved/hiatal hernia repaired on 3/11 as well, and know EXACTLY what you are taking about with the pain! As it was explained to me, the swelling in that area lies right on a nerve that goes up through your diaphram and into your left shoulder. OMG, it was AWFUL!!!

The pain WILL subside as the swelling goes down; take it easy and don't overdo it. My pain lasted almost 2 weeks. Everyone is different; but don't panic. It'll go away as you heal! Good luck!!

I am sure it will. I had an esophageal/ Sliding hernia. Just take your time with drinking and eating. As soon as I get that ache-I stop drinking or eating. Start back when I feel better. My doc said for me to call his office if pain does not stop or for basically anything. You should be getting better not worst-call your doc if you don't get better!

Yes, it does go away completely. I had a repair and it did hurt to swallow for about 10 days post op. It will get better. :D

Miss Kitty, do you think CAPS LOCK should be used on forum posts, even when we are really frustrated?

Another question for you Miss Kitty. Do you think threads should be hijacked taking the attention away from the OP and focused on my sillyness?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
