October surgeries?



Recommended Posts

I had my last nut appointment today. They will be submitting to insurance tomorrow! The nurse said I should hear something in the next 2-3 weeks. I told her I was nervous that I would be denied, she said my insurance company hardly denies and I meet all requirements. With any luck I will have my surgery around the second week of Oct!

Officially got a date of 10.19

I'm a special ed teacher, I'm doing 1st week off and possibly half days the 2nd week. Depending upon how I'm feeling.
I'm a teacher too. I'm taking one day shy of two weeks. It will be rough going back, but going to try to sit as much as possible. Yeah right!! Lol

Thinner me, it's hard to sit. Having small groups makes somewhat easier for sitting.

I teach first! So I know sitting will be hard! I do a lot of small groups so hope that helps!

That's cool SleevenChica! Who's your surgeon? When is your surgery?

      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!
