Was anyone else just miserable for their first 3 weeks post-op? I dreaded getting up in the morning and drinking anything, side effects like diarrhea were bad enough but nothing felt good in my stomach. I finally turned a corner a few days ago but at first I had buyers remorse every second of the day.

I'm still in horrible pain when I move the wrong way. Everyone asks how I am, and I say good except for the knife stuck in my left side. I can't sit at my desk for long or it starts shooting to my back. I'm at two weeks post open.

I'll be 3 wks on Thurs and I'm pretty miserable. My immune system is so low and I've been sick since 1 wk post op. I'm very ready to start feeling better....I know it's coming, just wish it would hurry up and get here.

It gets better! I was pretty miserable for the first two weeks, but at week four I feel surprisingly normal.

@@Cookie107 I completely feel the same way I'm 10 days post and I'm miserable. I crave real good so badly and to make it worse the shakes and everything are just not sitting well anymore. And my immune system feels likes its crashing. Anyone with ideas on how to fix this iut would be appreciated.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
