Freaking out...just a little bit



Recommended Posts

It's Friday and surgery is Monday. Trying to remain calm and focused but I have a nervous twitch over my eye!

Which eye?

No, seriously, there's nothing wrong with nervous or a little freaking out. Keep yourself occupied at a comfortable pace (not frenzied) between now and the time you head to the hospital. Change the sheets Monday a.m. before you head out. It will give you something to do and you'll have a fresh, crisp bed if you want a nap and some relaxation once home again.

Lol my right eye. I am trying to relax and keep busy at the same time so I am just exhausted. Thanks for the Monday morning suggestion!

Get some sleep and if you can't ... just lay there and close your eyes... relax with a shower ... book a massage... anything that helps you relax.

I get an eye twitch when I am super stressed. I know it's annoying and probably causing more stress! Monday will be here before you know it and then you'll be in recovery soon after that and well on your way. Hang in there and enjoy the weekend!

      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!
