Hey Heather! I can't figure out how to copy and paste but I'm agreeing with you on your surgery date. I can't seem to find anyone on the 13th so now I'm wondering if its because its Friday the 13th? I'm starting to think we should've picked different dates. I am just so ready to get this done! Hope we still run into each other at the hotel.

I'm on the 13th tooo!! I always find it to be a lucky day for me so I'm very happy to get it. I'm sure it will be lucky for you guys also!

Hi, I am new to this site, but looking for some support. I will be having my surgery on Sept. 11th with a hiatal hernia repair. I am so nervous!

Hi.
Im down for Sept 4th. Im excited and cant believe it. Surgery will be 10 weeks and a day form my first appointment. Yes, you read it right 10 weeks. Im in love with my insurance company and hospital at this moment. I'm from Illinois

I wish I lived in Illinois! My insurance co. Is awful! They would not pay for my surgery so it's out of pocket. And has been much more expensive than I thought with all the tests and such. I guess you have had your surgery now! How are you feeling? I'm due to have mine on Sept 11th, next Monday. I'm really nervous! It has been 3 1/2 months since my first appt. I really wanted the surgery much sooner. I'm even battling with the insurance co right now to approve the medications I need after surgery. I truly hope I'm doing the right thing!

I had my surgery on sept 1, 2017

How did you feel after the first few day? Gas pains is the worse right now! I'm not hungry but I'm drinking a lot! Been sleeping most of the day. How do you feel now?

I had my surgery yesterday too! How are you feeling?

if you can force yourself to burp after you drink or take medicine it helps with the gas I had my surgery on 9-6 and that was the worst for me feeling as thought my chest was going to pop.

Had mine yesterday. Gas was the most horrible part. Feeling a little better now.

I feel way better than I thought I would. The gas pains are insane, but thank God they aren't constant. I'm actually going to be discharged today!
