Nope. I woke from surgery as if I had a good nap and could have got up and left. I felt as if I didn't have the surgery. By the time I left for the hotel I was on the go. Went shopping, sightseeing and stayed extra time to enjoy a MX and S Cailifornia vacation. Flew home to enjoy a skiing vacation (didn't ski), but I had no complaints in regards to surgery. Felt I could have returned to work when I got home, but I already took the time off so I enjoyed it

You MUST.. Walk walk walk the minute you wake up. This is the only thing that will make your gas pains go away. I didn't have any, but many do. I didn't realize I had a drain until I got up to walk.. So remember to be careful not to pull on it while turning or moving around.

I'm not sleeved but researching and trying to decide what I want to do. If I do I will be going to Mexico to Dr. Ponce to have the surgery. My friend had it done four months ago and she said that the staff and Trish was the best!!! Just have to way out the pros and cons. What was your starting weight? I live in Las Vegas Nevada.

I was the same way. Kept thinking and thinking and to be honest i wasn't even100% sure when they wheeled me to the OR. I am 5 days post op today and I feel fine, just a bit tired. But when it comes to experience with dr Ponce and trish- I would do it again in a heartbeat. I drove alone and trish was there every step of the way.

      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.
