Isurca,

It's just some pre-surgery jitters.

I have a little exercise that will help you get in control and relax tomorrow. After they hook up your IV, they'll be in several times before they take you to surgery to check your vitals.

When the nurse comes in to check you BP, (blood pressure) I want you to concentrate deeply in your mind on the most relaxing place you can think of.......like a hammock on the beach with a nice breeze blowing and the sound of the waves as you sway back and forth with your eyes closed......feel yourself relaxing and breathing slowly while you enjoy those deep thoughts. Take yourself there in your mind. You will feel you BP going down and your heartrate slowing. - The game is to see low you can make your BP by controlling your ability to relax. By doing so, you will find you have the control over your nerves. And once you are able to relax, you will feel so much better.

I know you can do it. You're gonna be just fine. ;)

      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!
