Hey jennolson. I'm so happy for you.

You're doing great.

When I first came out I was in pain but mess kicked in. Then I had a little gas pain. Now I'm good. No more pain meds.

Jewels the nurse called it the gift that keeps on given. Lol. You be running until the morning. Sorry.

Jennolsen how are you feeling today? Mad gas is leaving me every way possible. Lol. It helps to walk. Also maybe ask your nurse for a compression belt. They have me one and it helps a lot.

Let me know how things are going

Susan66 when is your date?

So day 2 in the hospital. They found a tiny leak and now no food again today. Pain is hard to manage I'm either in pain or to tired to keep my eyes open. I'm hoping the leak isn't a problem at all and I'll be alright in a few days.

      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!
