Which part of No California? I had my surgery at the So Sacramento hospital. I loved the program (it is new/surgeries just started in Feb) and was very pleased w my surgeon Dr. Grinberg. I go to a support group here full of patients from Richmond who swear by Dr. Baggs.

Wish you success in whatever you choose!

Hi :) Anyone have any advise with trying to get your surgery approved through Kaiser? I'm switching to them as of January 1st and want to do the best I can to make sure I can get approved. I'll be meeting with my primary and trying to convince him/her to recommend me for surgery all in the same day so any advise would be much appreciated :)

      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.

      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!
