@Lisswell I sure hope you're beginning to feel a little better. I'm not about to give you any medical advice but In watching this board over the past few months I have seen a few stories similar to yours and people did get better. It's absolutely true that all of us have different experiences and our bodies react differently to this or other surgeries. You sound like you've had a truly miserable experience.

I'd be embarrassed to tell you how smooth my recovery has been since my VSG on 4/28. I hope that you turn the corner soon and start feeling human again. My bet is that in a couple of months you'll be feeling good and this will all be a distant memory.

Hugs...

Lisswill: Have things improved?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Things have starting getting better.. I had my pic line removed a week ago and I'm eat on my own. I still have moments where I can't keep food down but it's becoming few. I need to work on my Fluid intake... I know I'm not getting nearly as much fluids as I'm supposed to... But overall it's getting better.. I have to focus on losing the weight the TPN made me gain... Thanks for checking on me

Hang in. I was sleeved April 26, 2016 and other then some discomfort when eating a bit too much, things are fine. I followed the recommendations religiously until I felt confident my stomach had healed satisfactorily. Things will turn around for you.

      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!
