Day 2, not so good, but day 3 is looking better



Recommended Posts

Surgery was done on Wednesday so yesterday was my first full day. No good. I had TERRIBLE gas and nausea. Was up peeing ALL night which was probably good being that it forced me out of my bed. Today was MUCH better. Nausea is gone, gas is slowly but surely starting to come out. Yesterday I said "what the f*ck did I do to myself". Had total regrets immediately. But as I said, today is so much better and I'm on my way to good health!

I so hear what you are saying! My surgery was a week before you! I had to be re-admitted on Sunday and was released this past Tuesday for dehydration. I was having terrible nauseousness and couldn't keep anything down. Yesterday I was able to get some Protein in with the Isopure drinks. Wow, getting the protein in really helped me to start feeling better. Loving that every day is getting better and better! Take care!

I am with you on this too!. Had surgery Monday and thought I was going to die. The gas pains were terrible and I keep questioning myself what I have I done! Tuesday was not much better the gas just wuold not escape and the nauseousness was still there. But, by Wed I went home and started feeling better. Hang in there you are not alone. Im now day 4 days out and its much better.

I just got back from a walk and feel a whole lot better (1 mile VERY SLOW). I am starving though, I had to send my family out to eat so they wouldn't eat in front of me. I'm really looking forward to full liquids, I know a shake would help me feel satisfied.

      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!
