No didn't have any issues with the procedure. Had no excruciating pain. The only bit of pain I did have was at one of the incision sites where the stomach was pulled out from. No shoulder pain following the gas either, which was rather surprising...had more pain from this following gallbladder op.

The nurses were even surprised at how well I was. I stayed for 2 nights. First night was a very restless sleep as I couldn't get comfortable and second night I asked for sleeping tablets but they wore off, plus had a bit of a side effect with them...had a hallucination, which I read can happen. I thought there was another tremor in Geelong as it felt as though the bed was shaking.

I'm a few years late to this conversation, but thought I would post anyway and see if anyone else from Geelong is lurking!

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
