sometimes it feels like you can't talk to your surgeon because he's so busy with other people.

Just keep calling , my doctor has a answering service if no one is in the office, maybe call after hours and it may have his or her cell or answering service that pages them, after all the surgery wasn't cheap or free so you can call when ever you have a concern , I do and my doctor is super swapped out here in Miami area .....

it's like they get a attitude when you ask him a question because they really don't give me time to X questions not even 1 question even if you have it on a list

That sucks! I have the best surgeon. If he's not Around he returns the call. There is a 24/7 answering service.

I have had the best surgeon he comes in and sits down next to you ask how your doing any thing going on and honestly takes his time when talking to you shows pictures and examines everything to you and ask if you understand or have any questions. The hole time I've been in the hospital and its been a Total of 18 days he came in 2 times a day to see me everyday I was there no other dr for him only him including Sat & Sun 2 times each and everyday he came in one day and he knew I was really down and held my hand and told me don't worry everything was going to be ok and just sat there and talked to me for about 20 minutes he just makes you fell like your his only patient

I think he's making it hard for me because he knows I will find a way to get the answer when others will simply depend on him for everything and he's right. This sista has her thinking cap on ;-)

      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.
