Sorry to hear about all the problems right now but as everyone says just follow the drs and all will be ok. i have been on coumadin for almost 2 yrs after have blood clots in both lungs. i was not going in to the er till my dh made me- good thing- i am alive! It started this journey for me- while in the hospital I quit smoking and 8 mo later i got my lap band. Weight loss and changing eatting habits make monitoring your blood very important. After surgery i had to have INR's 2x a week till i stabilized and even now if I change my excersize level or what i am eatting I have to go in more often. Once you are on the blood thinners you should not have any more blood clot trouble so it is a good thing you found out. Good Luck with everything! This is just the start of a new journey!

      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!
