TMI alert possible complication for surgery



Recommended Posts

Hey all, feeling really anxious... ive had my period more on than off for a month(I have an iud) so I figured the bleeding was that went to the gyn yesterday had an ultrasound(yuck) will get results in a couple of days... my surgery date is may 5. I know I really should have all this cleared up, I just want my surgery to happen.. I have been preparing for this forever. Someone told me if I didnt go and get this taken care of they would have discovered it in the pre op.

So please can people think happy thoughts or pray that this resolves itself before the surgery? Thanks

Hi, I haven't been on here long but wanted to say you're not alone. I am having similar issues & now my GYN wants to do a partial hysterectomy at the same time as the sleeve. My surgeon has reservations about doing it together. I can't even get a date yet because they are all arguing about how they want it done. I've been trying to go for this for TWO YEARS and now this. You are in my prayers. I hope it works out for you.

Well from experience if you are stressed out with an IUD it causes spotting and irregular bleeding. So relax If I stay on my feet to long or get really upset this happens so think Happy Thoughts!!!

      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!
