I think you should just try and relax and if you puke up so be it. But if you keep it in thats good . Next time listen to you body and try again or go back to full liquids for a day or 2 then try again...good luck

Do NOT lie down. Do not drink anything to push it down; that will Only add to your pressure and may give chest tightness.

Try to relax. Breathe slowly through your mouth, if necessary. The pressure/discomfort should pass. If it's going to come back up, it will.

Take it slow and easy. Eat slowly at first Because the food needs time to get to your sleeve, and you do not have the room you used to have, even for puréed foods.

Hopefully by now (as I type), the discomfort has passed.

What a terrible feeling, I know. Like others suggested, relax it will eventually pass.

Yeah, drinking Water is NOT a good idea.

Does NOT solve the problem.

Walking seems to help

      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!
