Anyone else had a hiatal hernia repaired during the sleeve. I am 9 days post off and cannot drink or eat anything without taking my paid meds first.

It's so frustrating when does the pain stop?

I hope it gets better soon. I have a large hiatal hernia that will be repaired with GB RNY surgery on 6/1.

I had a hiatal hernia repair during the sleeve surgery and I had no idea I even had a hernia. The doctor said is was a moderate size, go figure. Anyway, I'm only 5 days post op and eating shakes and pureed Soups okay. If pure liquid hurts to swallow I would try tiny little sips and see how it goes. Use the pain meds, and if it doesn't improve, call your surgeons office.

I hope you get some relief soon.

I had the hernia repair too. I had a rough few days but I'm doing much better now.

I had the sleeve & hernia repair May 10th

During my pre op visit this week, the Surgeon said that the pain with the hernia repair would be pretty significant and that I needed to make sure my nausea was well controlled so I don't vomit. I guess I'll find out soon, surgery on Wed.

Had it repaired with gastric on the 10th. No nausea and nothing too bad.

Yeah! Good to hear.

8 months post op....had the hernia repair, it was not planned but "discovered" during surgery. I'm doing ok but need to continue with small bites. I have trouble with solid foods like mashed (or really any kind of) potatoes, bananas etc. I find its more comfortable if i mix up my bites with salad. For some reason the salad lightens up the heavy foods.

I had a hernia repair with surgery. I actually stopped the pain meds two days in because they were causing nausea. I felt fine after that.

I was told basically the same thing. My pain level wasn't too bad the first week but I did experience bad nausea. You definitely do not want to vomit and risk internal damage. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
