I doubt they will put you on bed rest just cause you have no energy but then again I'm not a doctor either. Its part of being pregnant. I quit my job cause all I did was sleep and throw up my first trimester and I'm still fatigue at 17 weeks. I know everyone cant do that but maybe cutting back on hours if possible may help. Talk to your doctor and see what they say. Good luck.

Okay so I went to my Ob today and got sent to the ER to get fluids. In dehydrated my blood pressure is low and to top it off I have a UTI. They are going to give me an IV at home, waiting on approval from insurance.

Take care yourself. Dehydration will happen a lot if you don't keep fluids in ya. Trust me...I deal with it a few times a month and usually can get myself back on track. Few times I've needed a IV. Good luck and try as hard as you can to get fluids in.

I'm sorry you're feeling so drained. I felt the same way but my issue was low Iron. I now get Iron infusions 3x/week. Hope you feel better soon.

      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?
