Wow i have a surgery date



Recommended Posts

I am completely excited, nervous and ready! I still cant believe that they gave me a tentative date. Feb 12th is the day my life will change. I have my final evaluation class Wed and my Preop Ed Class that following Mon then paper work gets sent off to the insurance and i wait for my approval(positive thinking) I am so ready for this. This process for me has been very fast because i didn't have to do any diet programs just the requirements to make sure im healthy for surgery and everything came back great. All i keep thinking is what is my life going to be like after this? How will it be to finally be healthy and slim(lol slim) I can't wait. I so glad i have you all to come on here and share my story with. Please feel free to share your journeys with me

My first appt for my doc was Nov 29. I have Medicaid HMO Anthem Healthkeeper. The crazy thing is I had lost my insurance because I lost my job n wouldn't be able to afford Cobra but thanks to God he made a way for me to still get healthy.

      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!
