I hope all goes smoothly for you. Nerves may be hard to take but It is all happening. I want to be in your spot now but have ten days left to go. Let us all know your post op updates. There is many here that have you and others going forward with surgery in their thoughts.

There's nothing to worry about. They (should) put you to sleep and you wake up after. I love endoscopies.. I love the sleep ;)

Oh wait.. Unless you're worried they will find something.. But then there's still nothing to worry about because worrying won't help. Be positive :D

Me too. I got taken out with propofol. No wonder Michael Jackson loved it so much. That stuff is awesome!

Endoscopy is easy - I had no pain at all. I woke up from the anesthesia and asked why they were taking so long to get started - I was shocked it was already done!

I think mine will be at the end of my 6 months. I sure hope they put me to sleep for it.

How did u feel after. We're u awake enough to go to work

I needed my wife to drive me home per hospital rules. I walked out perfectly stable on my feet. I felt a little tired for about 4 hours afterwards. After that everything was like a normal day for me.

Oh my gosh I went to work and struggled hard to stay awake. I did have someone drop me off at work then take me home, but to tell you the truth I was pretty much regretting going to work. I would have been fine at home watching a move or something lol

I just had mine today. There really isn't much to it like others said. I actually had a colonoscopy right directly after it so I did a double whammy. That was my choice just because it was due to be done. I was not able to drive and was told isn't permitted by law anyway. You'll be fine.

      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!
