Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is my appointment where I hopefully get a date! I can't wait to get this done. I have had 3 C-sections anyone know how this surgery compares to that like pain wise and recovery time? Thanks!

I know right! I've had 2 c-sections myself and I've held on to the notion that if I can do that then this should be a breeze. Have also had gallbladder and appendix removed. I certainly will let you kno as soon as I know ...

It's so much easier than a c-section and I've had 2 of those!

That is a good question. I figured I had my gallbladder removed I'm thinking it's about the same amount of pain.

I've never been cut open I've never had a broken bone or a stitch so I'm nervous about the pain. I have large tattoos but that and natural childbirth are the only pain I've really experienced.

      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!
