Anyone have to do any kind of bowel prep? I'm debating on doing an enema, I know things slow down after anesthesia, I thought I would feel better if I was as empty as possible.

I am just about jumping out of my skin with nerves, would love to fast forward 4 months!

Here's my list in addition to that:

toothbrush
deodorant
hair brush
laptop/tablet/phone
heating pad
toiletries
cell phone charger
Comfy sweat pants/house dresses
Soft bras
Big hoodie for the drive home
Chapstick
Extension cord for all your plug ins
a large pair of panties so nothing chafes incisions.
small travel pillow for ride home
slip on shoes
trash bags for car in case you throw up on way home
Putting it all in a small carry-on so husband just has one piece to keep with him while he waits...
FINGERS CROSSED FOR ALL OF US!

      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!
