@@carlissa_RN - sounds like you have found out what you need to get on the road to this fantastic journey.

Your stomach will be loud for a while, and it will be quieter and then all of a sudden get noisy again if its like mine. I am almost 13months post and every once in a while I will hear gurgling and "noises".

Keep posting~

First night was HELL...nausea and vomiting all night. Dizziness, pain, discomfort... couldnt walk. Everytime I wretched from vomiting I would wet the bed and they would have to change everything. I thought I was going to die. YOU ARE NOT ALONE! A week out now I am 70% back to normal... I can walk with an abdominal binder, the pain is fine and the nausea only comes on if I dont have my belly supported well. It gets better, hang in there. sleep as much as you can...thats how I got through the hospital 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!
