I had a robotic lap surgery. I had to have everything taken' date=' right down to the lymph nodes due to my precancerous state. The problems I'm having isn't from the hysterectomy itself, but improper placement of the catheter. The tried to replace it 3 times to no avail :'-( so right now I am able to go off antibiotics for a week and then I get the pain in my bladder and a UTI. It is ridiculous. I have a cystoscopy set up for next Friday. The will have a looksy into my bladder to see what damage was done. Hopefully nothing major. If its permanent, lawsuit will be coming around.

Also, if you can postpone til after finals, that would be better. You will need 2-3 weeks and that is w the robot assisted laparoscopic surgery. You'll have the gassiness again, ugh. Plus for me it was heck of a lot more painful than the RNY. Probably due to complications.

Just tell them to make sure they place catheter properly. Good luck. I will have you in my thoughts!!!

Thank you. I already warned my teachers the following week I will be there but I will be drugged up and will only stay an hour not the whole 3. My gallbladder surgery was worst then my rny too so I am scared of this one. I had my gallbladder surgery in December and just as two weeks ago I am able to lay in my left side without the pulling feeling inside

      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.
