Dr. Wallace did my surgery, very good Dr. He kinda scared me a little bit when I first met him also, but omg that is so not him he is just the opposite. So don't worry all is good.

Hello again from Northern Wisconsin.

My surgery at mayo was excellent.

I was lucky to meet another woman from Wisconsin during our pre-op nut education session.

We have been keeping in touch.

I have found that our stories are very different, even tho we shared the same doc!

I'm from Sheboygan, I had my surgery in Milwaukee at Columbia St. Mary's near the lake. I'm new to this site thingy. I had my surgery 03/21/2016. Every thing went great! Almost like they didn't do anything. Is that weird? The stuff they say would be different with drinking or eating is no different. Why?

      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!
