Now that I have had the endoscopy. How long does it take to get the sleeve done? Just wondering. I ordered a new night gown and robe for surgery. My husband wants to know when it will be. Me too.

Travel mego, I had mine this morning and it was a piece of cake! I had an IV put in and went to the procedure room. They put electrodes on my chest to monitor my heart. The worst part was the tiny cup of thick liquid I had to gargle and swallow , it was pretty nasty. They then put Demerol in my IV drip and I was out if it!! They also gave me a drug so that I wouldn't remember anything and the next thing I knew I was back in my room like nothing ever happened! I had 2 biopsies and I cannot tell they were done!

I really worried for nothing! You will do fine!!

Yeah that was a easy thing. I was called 2 days later for my surgery date exactly 3 weeks later.

I had my endoscopy back in February. I just had my medical clearance appointment yesterday, June 20th. I can expect to have my surgical clearance in 2 weeks...then I'll be given a date for surgery. I was told that it'll like be in late July or early August.

      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!
