Today is the day! And I haven't slept!



Recommended Posts

Today is the day!! I was so excited I couldn't sleep last night and then I ended up with only one hour of sleep! Eh, I guess I'll have plenty of time to catch up the next few days!!

Surgery is at 7:30am PST and check in is at 5:30am. Almost there!!!

I was so excited on my surgery day also! I was bouncing on the gurney in the pre-op and my friend who drove me asked, "You know you're having a surgery, right?" He understood though because his wife had had a sleeve also.

It really as an exciting and day and so many months (and longer for some) leading up to it!

Best wishes on your surgery and a swift recovery!

Thank you everyone for the well wishes! I've been sleeping the majority of the day with the exception of walks down the hall and bathroom trips!

It all happened so fast! I don't remember being hauled into the OR or even being in recovery! Next thing I knew I was already in my room!

So far so good, sore stomach and those gas pains when they come sure come!

They said I've been so good with vitals and everything I should be let out by 11 tomorrow!

Crossing fingers and thanks again!!

      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!
