GOOD LUCK!!! You will be just find but better to be safe .. I went to my cardio dr. on my own the week before my surgery just to have peace of mind. I had some pains and got scared because i was going in for surgery and didnt want anything to happen. There wasnt anything wrong my EKG was fine but I just needed to feel safe. So dont you worry everything will work out.... ;)

I went yesterday to the cardiologist for my letter of recommendation and my heartbeat is to fast so he prescribed something to slow it down and also I am having a stress test done on Thursday, hopefully is nothing.

I got my stress test done two days before surgery! It was a dobutamine stress echo instead of the normal walking on the treadmill because I weighed too much (soon to change :) !). On top of that I had my PAT on that day as well! I cut it pretty close...

      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.

      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.
