Well... hopefully the hardest part is over.... It was a pretty rough night, of dry heaving and regurgitating (i'll spare you the details) but my medical team was awesome and I'm feeling MUCH better today. Leak lest tomorrow, then hopefully home free and Popsicle time! Fingers crossed! Thanks for all your encouraging words!!!

No, I had to wait also... At least that's the way I remember it! I was hitting the pain pump pretty hard :P

I do however remember drinking that nasty blue stuff!

Are they giving you anti-nausea meds? They gave me some both before & after surgery.

Yeah, they pumped me full of Anti nausea stuff, but not much helped. I'm feeling better today just the occasional' 'spit up' and a pukey feeling. Tomorrow is the leak fest, so really hoping for the best!!!

Just FYi, I passed the leak test today! Yay!! fingers crossed for no 'late leaks'!!!! or any complications. Super tired and the pain meds make me very agitated and restless so I might ditch them... ready to feel 'normal' but I realize this is a new normal, and it may take a while. THANK YOU ALL for your thoughts and prayers. I really appreciate it!!!!! xoxoxoxox

      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!
