Looking for my June 1 buddy's ?

I experienced the heaves and foaming spit up. My sleeve does not like anything with artificial sweeteners so a Popsicle did me in! Decaf iced tea has been a godsend! What else is everyone tolerating?

Hiccups here too!

The gas pressure is gone and I was released from hospital today. Each meal I'm only eating a few bites of sf Jello and a few spoon of broath. I have to eat slow and I don't over do it.if I start feeling pressure, I stop. Each day I feel better and can eat a few more bites.

Sent me home today, I still have a ton of gas pain, no matter how much I walk. The hiccup/burps are really painful. Sipping on Isopure clear and Water.< /p>

I was told I needed to pass gas in order to go home and this morning finally. Try massaging the bottom part of your stomach downward, insitions should be higher on stomach.

Crazy how every program is different. I had one nurse tell me I had to pass gas too before I could leave but when the doc did rounds she said to relax because that might not happen until day 3. Sure enough, by last night things were moving.

Went through the surgery yesterday. I was in minimal pain yesterday. Today the soreness got worse. No nausea since right afterwards in recovery, but I have a good tolerance for Anestesia. 14 surgeries on grafts In my arms in a little over a year will do that. Just had my first oz of Water. Good luck to everyone!! Keep us updated. I know reading about what everyone was going through made me feel less alone.

June 1st also how's everyone doing post op clear liquid diet? I'm feeling pretty good but sitting up is still pretty difficult for me 5 days out. Dr said I would be fine at home alone with my 4yr old once I left the hospital and man this has NOT been fun it's hard to keep up!

I too am struggling to keep up with my 5yr old. I can't imagine a 4yr old. Everything's getting better, but I'm struggling to get my fluids in.

I drink the clear Isopure in a bottle, it's 2g/oz and not as heavy as the shakes. However, I keep having to stop after each oz and wait for spasms...so I'm slow on intake.

I have a 5 yr old and 1.5, so I had my husband take 3 days off to take then to/from daycare and be w them evenings. I'm still sitting with them but he's taking care of meals and activities,def. Helps. Still on only liquids but going to try shakes today,see how that goes. Also,not getting in all fluids I should,but otherwise everything good.

Just my first day after surgery. I am on Clear Liquids until at least Wednesday. I have only had Apple juice so far. 4 ounces every couple of hours. I feel quite full afterwards.

      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!
