Just got banded yesterday!



Recommended Posts

So far so good! Not bad gas pain at all. Was done at noon yesterday. Came home around 2. Had some bad pain in my upper back around midnight last night. My fiancee tapped and massaged my back for an hour, then I was able to release the gas and I have been fine ever since. Pain meds are helping. I'm on the shakes today. I haven't vomited once. Not even right after surgery. I hope it stays this easy.

Thanks! It's my work picture. When does the abdominal pain go away? It's hard to sit up from a flat position. Hard to roll over in bed.

      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!
