@@Ilovecats1985 I'm the infamous 39 year old crazy cat man! hahaha

You are a rare gem my friend!
Haha yeah I have found that out. lol
How many do you have? I have 3 in my house and one stray I take care of outside. I keep pushing for a fourth in the house so my boy will have a buddy. The two girls are so mean and bitter all the time. Lol!

I just sent you a message, I'm sure others might not enjoy cat talk. lol

Thank you for this thread! I had no idea how long it might take and it is helpful in planning my post-op responsibilities.

I had a surgery on Tuesday and drove back to college on Saturday. I kept a pillow over my sorest incision and had it tucked in my seat belt for bumps or anything. It helped a lot.

I was told no driving for two weeks! Luckily where I live the public transport is great and there is a lot in walking distance. I only use my car once a week anyway.

      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!
