Hi. Thanks for writing back so quickly. I'm always curious where folks are from. I think it's kinda kinda neat to think of locations. I will be done at West Penn as well. Who did your surgery? I will be done by Dr Eid. April/May.

How are you doing at this point? How was your overall experience?

Hello MommyT01!!!

Welcome! I have not went to any information meetings although I may go to one this month. I'd love to sit and listen to what others have to say. How about you? Have you went to any yet?

I am going to my 3rd visit Jan 7th with the physician assistant, NUT and now the psychologist at this visit. I'm half way!!! 3 more visits after this! Monday I'm having an endoscopy and next week I have a second sleep study to do since they discovered I have apnea???? What area in Pittsburgh are you from? And where will you be having 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!
