Sleeve and hiatal hernia repair



Recommended Posts

I had both on 12/7. I woke up in a lot of pain from the hernia repair and for close to a week had discomfort, but it wasn't bad at all. I felt as though I needed to burp really badly, but it was stuck. Uncomfortable yes, somewhat painful only 1 or 2 days. I have menstrual cramps that are worse! I also didn't have any issues with the swallowing like my surgeon had warned me about. I know everyone copes differently, but I'm glad I had the hernia repair at the same time as my sleeve. For me, getting all of my Protein in has been by far the most difficult thing so far

I had both and didn't notice anything really that strange or odd. I had a bit more discomfort when lying down on my back, but I think that was mainly heartburn/reflux.

I was sleeved with a hiatal hernia repair on 12/5/16. The only discomfort I experienced was from the gas they blow you up with. It will pass after a couple of days. Recovery has been a breeze, hopefully your experience will be the same.

I had gastric sleeve, hiatal hernia repair and gallbladder removal in 12/16. Went home on 12/17. Getting all my liquids in. Don't feel hungry or full. The wanting to burn feeling definitely and a little pressure. Pain meds only at night. So worth it. I took a walk today.

I had both and didn't have anything other than light pressure for a day from the hiatal hernia repair. If surgeon hadn't told me I may notice it, don't think I would have.

I had mine on the 14th. Are you having any pressure or pulling in your stomach in the muscles?

Yes when I move getting up out of a chair or bed and bending over. As long as no type of feeling when I'm still, I'm good

I had both done on 12/14/16 and honestly, I woke up in tons of pain. BUT I don't remember a whole lot about being in recovery. They had me on a pain pump which helped a lot. Now that I'm home and on oral pain meds, my stomach is the biggest pain (literally lol) I am very sore behind my biggest incision that they pulled my stomach out of.. it feels like a pulling and aching feeling when I walk. The hernia repair hasn't been bad that I've noticed. I've had some bad chest pain but I'm pretty sure that's from the gas they put in you during surgery :) walking and gas x strips helps get the gas out quicker.

I had both done on 12/9. Minus the gas pains the first night,recovery has been great. Walking everyday and Protein have been some of the keys to my recovery.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
