Had My Band Revised Today!



Recommended Posts

So I had to get a band revision because my band had flipped itself. Well I had it about 10 this morning the surgery only took about 20 min and I woke up about 11 and I was worried because when I woke up from the surgery the first time I freaked out! But I woke up feeling great!! They did use the gas so no gas pains yay!!! Im still feeling pretty good...just a little sore at the incision site. Also, they found out my band was flipped when I went to get my first fill so I wasnt able to get my fill so today they went ahead and gave me my first fill! I could not be happier right now! :) thanks to everyone for the support because I know when I first found out I was a mess but I got through it! Now back to the weight loss!!

      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.

      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!
